Interaction of groundwater flow systems and thermal regimes in mountainous terrain : a numerical study
It is widely recognized that topographically-driven groundwater flow can perturb conductive thermal regimes. High-relief topography amplifies the impact of factors controlling groundwater flow and advective heat transfer. A finite element method is developed to model the influence of geology, climat...
