Nowadays the study of regional groundwater resources, because of draught ,their optimal exploitation,and reducing their pollution is a vital matter. A proper way to prevent the pollution of undergroundwaters is to locate vulnerable spots and to conduct an efficient exploitation of the ground. Using thepresent models is very essential to locate and study about vulnerable spots. For this study, G...

Regarding to increased use of groundwater resources, it seems necessary to have more accurate knowledge of characteristics of aquifers in order to improved usage and accurate management of these resources. In this study, we simulated groundwater flow of Qazvin aquifer usingVisual MODFLOW model, collecting data and statistics, as well as using different studies. The simulation model has operated...

Despite public concerns, only a few CO2 injections into saline aquifers have reported microseismicity. We analyze passive seismic monitoring of small (15,000 tonnes and 0.15 MPa pressure) injection supercritical CO2-rich mixture for Stage 2C the CO2CRC Otway Project (Victoria, Australia), which induced 19 detectable events with maximum moment magnitude MW-0.5. The locations dynamic parameters t...

introduction one of the most vulnerable water resources against contamination is ground water table. these resources are exposed to contamination in various forms. identifying and controlling contamination in these resources are more difficult and costly than surface waters. also because of the persistence of contamination in these resources, the best way to prevent their contamination is to id...

Accurate groundwater level modeling and forecasting contribute to civil projects, land use, citys planning and water resources management. Combined Wavelet-Artificial Neural Network (WANN) model has been widely used in recent years to forecast hydrological and hydrogeological phenomena. This study investigates the sensitivity of the pre-processing to the wavelet type and decomposition level in ...

The gas-assisted gravity drainage (GAGD) process is designed and practiced based on gravity drainage idea and uses the advantage of density difference between injected CO2 and reservoir oil. In this work, one of Iran western oilfields was selected as a case study and a sector model was simulated based on its rock and fluid properties. The pressure of CO2 gas injection was close to the MMP of th...

A polyphasic approach based on cultivation and direct recovery of 16S rRNA gene sequences was utilized for microbial characterization of an aquifer contaminated with chlorinated ethenes. This work was conducted in order to support the evaluation of natural attenuation of chlorinated ethenes in groundwater at Area 6 at Dover Air Force Base (Dover, DE). Results from these studies demonstrated the...
