Transmissivity of Aquifer by Capture Zone Method: An Application in the Sete Lagoas Karst Aquifer, MG, Brazil.
Transmissivity is an important hydraulic parameter to determine the amount of water passed horizontally across a given saturated thickness of an aquifer. The techniques to quantify this parameter, such as grain size analyses or pumping tests, can have limitations of time/spatial scale, viability, or economically. One technique that can be used, but little adopted, is the capture zone analysis. ...
متن کاملGeologic conceptual model of the municipality of Sete Lagoas (MG, Brazil) and the surroundings.
The study area is located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, among the municipalities of Pedro Leopoldo, Matozinhos, and Sete Lagoas, with Velhas River as the eastern boundary. It is located in the São Francisco Craton, where carbonated argillo-arenaceous sediments are emplaced giving origin to the Bambuí Group, in the São Francisco Basin. Despite the geological knowledge previously develope...
متن کاملTransmissivity identification through multi-directional aquifer stimulation
This paper presents a geostatistical approach to multi-directional aquifer stimulation in order to better identify the transmissivity ®eld. Hydraulic head measurements, taken at a few locations but under a number of different steady-state ̄ow conditions, are used to estimate the transmissivity. Well installation is generally the most costly aspect of obtaining hydraulic head measurements. There...
متن کاملPercolation and particle transport in the unsaturated zone of a karst aquifer.
Recharge and contamination of karst aquifers often occur via the unsaturated zone, but the functioning of this zone has not yet been fully understood. Therefore, irrigation and tracer experiments, along with monitoring of rainfall events, were used to examine water percolation and the transport of solutes, particles, and fecal bacteria between the land surface and a water outlet into a shallow ...
متن کاملMonitoring well responses to karst conduit head fluctuations: Implications for fluid exchange and matrix transmissivity in the Floridan aquifer
Karst aquifers with high primary-porosity matrix, such as the Floridan aquifer, have the potential for movement of water between conduits and matrix, with important implications for karst development and the maintenance of groundwater quality. The Santa Fe River Sink and River Rise conduit system, along with the surrounding unconfined Floridan aquifer in north-central Florida, provides a study ...
