Abstract

Combining hydrogeological data with subsurface geological conditions represent the data base for a preliminary geozoning map of Al-Ain City, UAE. The groundwater depth data suggest a general increases outwards from the city center, which together with surface seeps indicate uprising groundwater level. The results indicated that constructors of buildings and infrastructure in most central part of the city need to pay attention to the changing situation in groundwater level and related effects on the stability of foundation substrata.
