Analytical studies are carried out to investigate groundwater head changes in a coastal aquifer system in response to tidal fluctuations. The system consists of an unconfined aquifer, a semi-confined aquifer and a semi-permeable confining unit between them. An exact analytical solution is derived to investigate the influences of both leakage and storage of the semi-permeable layer on the tide-i...

introduction more than 90% of drinking water in cities around the world and about 40% of the agricultural water supply from groundwater resources.,thus, groundwater quality consideration issue is inevitable . one of the most important parameter which can show the quality of drinking water is nitrate concentration. nitrate enters the groundwater and surface water through the decomposition of hum...

The aquifer thermal energy storage system (ATES) owing to growing demands for sustainable energy has become a popular technology in last few decades for long term storing of excess thermal energy. The efficiency of such a system depends entirely on the capacity of the aquifer to retain heat and hence modeling the heat transfer and transient temperature distribution in the aquifer due to hot wat...

This thesis explores speleogenesis within the Dartry Limestone Formation of Cuilcagh Mountain by considering the hydrogeology of the aquifer in the modern setting but also by considering its evolution since it was deposited during Asbian (Dinantian) times. Due to the synclinal structure of the region, which gently plunges northwestwards, the aquifer remains buried beneath the upland and is not ...

This paper presents an analytical solution to describe tidal groundwater level fluctuations in a coastal leaky aquifer system bounded by water–land boundaries that form a right angle (referred to as L-shaped coastlines). The system consists of an unconfined aquifer, a confined aquifer and a leaky layer between them. Previously published analytical solutions that discuss only single aquifer cons...

We present a semi-analytical solution for the transient streaming potential response of a confined aquifer to pumping at a constant rate through a fully-penetrating line sink. Confined aquifer flow is assumed to occur without fluid leakage from the confining units and is thus described by the solution of Theis (1935). The confining units, which are typically more electrically conductive than th...

This study presents a semi-analytical solution for the problem of leakage in an unconfined aquifer bounded below by an aquitard of finite or semi-infinite extent. The homogeneous anisotropic unconfined aquifer of infinite radial extent is pumped continuously at a constant rate from a well of infinitesimal radius. The aquitard is also homogeneous , anisotropic and of infinite radial extent. Flow...

Modeling the geologic architecture of an aquifer and visualizing its three-dimensional structure require lithologic data recorded during well drilling. Uncertainties in layer boundaries arise due to questionable quality of drilling records, mixing during the drilling process, which results in blurred contacts, and natural heterogeneity of the geologic materials. An approach for modeling and vis...
