In general Pakistan is an agricultural country, most of its area including lower Indus basin (LIB) lies in arid and semi-arid zones, where irrigation by canal water and groundwater is only option. Due to continuous seepage from canal irrigation network and infiltration from irrigated lands; without adequate provision of natural and artificial drainage and its appropriate outlet, water-logging a...

An analysis of groundwater flow and transport processes of arsenic in the flow domain of the Yamuna sub-basin located in West Bengal (India) is presented. The objectives of the analysis are: to conceptualize the groundwater flow domain, to determine groundwater flow paths and groundwater velocities, to study arsenic transport in the flow domain, and to study the well captures zones. The first t...

Investigation of the interaction of surface water (SW) and groundwater (GW) is critical in order to determine the effects of best management practices (BMPs) on the entire system of water resources. The objective of this research was to develop a modeling system for considering SW–GW interactions and to demonstrate the applicability of the developed system. A linked modeling approach was select...

Riverbank filtration (RBF) consists of green drinking water production in many regions and is used as a pre-treatment phase. This study investigates the performance RBF Nile delta, Egypt, for climate change population growth scenarios 2030, 2040, 2050. presents new method predicting sharing riverbanks considering three cases: i) river stage controlling levels river, ii) increasing pumping, iii)...

Introduction MT3DMS is a three-dimensional (3D) multispecies contaminant transport model with a modular structure to permit simulation of solute transport processes independently or jointly (Zheng and Wang 1999; Zheng 2009). MT3DMS interfaces directly with the U.S. Geological Survey’s finite-difference ground water flow model, MODFLOW, for the flow solution, and supports all the hydrologic and ...

FLOTRAN is a ground water ̄ow and transport model developed in the past few years which takes advantage of recent advances in numerical methodology. FLOTRAN solves the governing equations for ̄ow and contaminant transport using Godunovmixed methods, in which a higher-order Godunov method is used to approximate the advective ̄ux, and a mixed ®nite element method is used for the dispersive transp...

S.K. Gupta Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad-380009, India Abstract Drinking water supply wells were constructed in the Sabarmati river bed aquifer of Ahmedabad city using radial pipes and are known as French Collector wells. Contamination of groundwater from one of the French wells near Sabarmati railway bridge was noticed in 1992. The suspected pollution sources are Duff-nala of Shahiba...

Abstract In this study, we present the efficiency of remediation scenario to attenuate impact acid mine drainage (AMD) contamination in Kettara abandoned site. The study focuses on AMD groundwater Sarhlef shists aquifer. To predict evolution site under scenario, a model flow and transport was performed. Piezometric heads were measured at dry wet periods from eleven wells located downstream wast...
