Cover Story: In the state of Texas (USA), shallow alluvial aquifer systems that are mined for natural aggregate materials (sand and gravel) often have mine pits that are left open to the surface to create recreational water features or provide water for livestock. Though picturesque and serene, their effects on local groundwater systems are not well understood or constrained and such lake systems may be exacerbating water level decline and altering groundwater chemistry. The pit in this photograph is largely used as water supply for cattle and experiences frequent algal blooms and constant evaporation, all while still being connected to groundwater flow in the aquifer, making it (and the many lakes like it) a potential liability for aquifer management as we move towards a more uncertain water future.
