Structural controls on bedrock weathering in crystalline basement terranes and its implications on groundwater resources
Abstract Crystalline basement rock aquifers underlie more than 20% of the earth’s surface. However, owing to an inadequate understanding of geological structures, it is challenging to locate the groundwater resources in crystalline hard rock terranes. In these terranes, faults, fractures, and shear...
