Aquitards are capable of generating and preserving large amounts of chemicals. The release of the chemicals from the aquitards poses a potential contamination risk to groundwater that may be used as a drinking water source. This work aimed to identify the contribution of hydrogeochemical processes in the aquitards to groundwater hydrochemistry in the underlying confined basal aquifer by studyin...

this paper gives an account of the implementation of geomorphological, hydrogeological, hydrochemical and isotopic techniques to understand groundwater-surface water interactions in a multiple use area, los padres-la brava corridor (se of buenos aires province, argentina). the isophreatic map reveals a regional flow from the sw to ne sector, and allowed us to define the effluent-influent behav...

Mean groundwater levels of a multi-layered coastal leaky aquifer system are considered. The system consists of an unconfined aquifer, a confined aquifer and a semi-permeable layer between them. Both exact asymptotic solutions and approximate perturbation solutions are derived for multi-sinusoidal-component sea tide. At inland places far from the coastline, the perturbation solutions show a good...

This study presents an approach for obtaining limited sets of realizations of hydraulic conductivity (K) of multiple aquifers using simulated annealing (SA) simulation and spatial correlations among aquifers to simulate realizations of hydraulic heads and quantify their uncertainty in the Pingtung Plain, Taiwan. The proposed approach used the SA algorithm to generate large sets of natural logar...

Tidal fluctuations in a leaky confined coastal aquifer are damped significantly due to leakage into an overlying phreatic aquifer. Jiao and Tang [1999] presented an analytical solution to a simple model describing this phenomenon. Their solution assumes that the tidal fluctuations in the overlying phreatic aquifer are negligible (i.e., a static phreatic aquifer). Here we examine dynamic effects...
