▼ Multiple-point statistics (MPS) is a rising method for the characterization of heterogeneity. Its strength and its Achilles' heel lie in the training image, which is the conceptual model of geological heterogeneity on which MPS simulations are based. Indeed, on one side the use of the training image allows great flexibility when for example for bi-dimensional (2D) simulation a training image can be provided by a photo-mosaic of an outcrop or by a sketch drawn by a geologist. On the other side, in three-dimensions (3D) a training image is rarely available. When the information provided by a 3D image is not accessible, then one must somehow use probabilistic information which comes from lower dimen- sion sources, like for example 2D training images. If different 2D sources of information are available, one possibility is to aggregate the corresponding probability information. This problem is very general and several methods exist. Two main categories of methods are distinguished: those based on the sum (convex) and those based on the multiplication (non-convex). When the weighting factors can be determined from some training data, the best reliabilities are obtained with the Beta-transformed linear pool and the Bor- diey's formula. Instead, when training data are not accessible, reasonably reliable results can be obtained with the Bordley's formula and with the Markovian-type categorical prediction. One convex method and one non-convex method are tested for the ag- gregation of information coming from 2D training images. For the tests, one 3D image of a micro-computed tomography of a sandstone and one 3D realization of a fluvio-glacial environment are used as references. Two di- mensional slices of the reference 3D images are used as training images for providing the information to be aggregated with the methods cited above, but also for the simulation with two novel method proposed here. One of this methods is baaed on sequential 2D simulations conditioned by the data computed during the previous simulation steps (method s2Dcd). With this last method it is possible to obtain , without the use of a 3D training im- age, 3D simulations which can be considered close to the reference images according to most comparison criteria considered. Moreover, while the re- sults obtained with the method s2Dcd are close to the results obtained with a MPS simulation which make use of a 3D training image, the CPU time required by s2Dcd is from two to four orders of magnitude smaller than with a traditional 3D simulation. This computational efficiency is a step forward for the introduction of MPS in frameworks which require a great number of realizations in a reasonably restricted amount of time, like for example Monte Carlo methods or stochastic inverse problems. Other techniques exists to deal with the simulation in 3D when a 3D training image is not available. One of this techniques, developed in this thesis' framework, is applied for the simulation of the image of the fluvio- glacial aquifer analog used as… Advisors/Committee Members: Philippe (Dir.), Julien (Codir.).

▼ Hydrogeological investigation of Chacha catchment, a volcanic aquifer system is carried out on Chacha river shade which is situated about 105 km north east of Addis Ababa on the way to Debre Berhan and covers an area of about 1194 sq.Km with a considerable elevation difference from 700-3500 m.a.s.l and an average elevation of 2728m.River gorge, gentle slope and highland characterize the physiograph of the catchment The catchment gets 939 mm of annual mean rainfall and 13-15.6 °c average annual temperature. Potential evapotranspiration (PET) is estimated empirically 1141mm/yr. The area has two rainfall regimes (bimodal rainfall characteristics). Recent Quaternery deposits, Tertiary Ignimbrites, Basalts, Tertiary Sediments and Mesozoic Sandstone constitute the stratigraphy of the area from the youngest to the oldest respectively. The aquifer system has been defined based on hydrogeological characteristics of lithological units described by the geological maps and data from the field inventory. The hydrogeological characterization of the area revealed the following aquifer / aquitard system: •.Porous aquifer developed in alluvial and colluvial sediments of the plateau, Tertiary sediments, Pyroclastics and Mesozoic sandstone in deep valleys.(T=10-100 sq.m/d and Q=1-5 l/s) •Fissured aquifer developed in basalts on plateau and deep valleys.(T=10-100 sq.m/d and Q=1-5l/s) •Mixed aquifer developed in fissured Ignimbrite and Basalt and porous Tertiary Sediments intercalating volcanic rocks on plateau. (T=10-100 sq.m/d and Q=1-5l/s) •Aquitards developed in Ignimbrites forming water shed mountains along plateau – rift valley edge. (T = 1 – 0.1sq.m/d and Q = 0.05 - 0.5 l/s) The water type in the Chacha catchment is predominantly calcium bicarbonate. Groundwater of the study area is generally suitable for Drinking water supply and irrigation. Generally, the area has enormous surface water and ground water resources thus intensive sustainable water resources development is recommended by sinking dugwells and shallow wells not more than 60m depth on the plateau and small valleys. Springs can be developed on the flat plain and escarpments of the deep gorges. Drilled wells in the range of 100-150m are recommended for town water supply schemes. In addition to water supply, large scale irrigation and hydroelectric power development in Chacha catchment using available water resource specially ground water is possible.

▼ The Bay of Plenty beaches on the east coast of the North Island, New Zealand are of significant physical, ecological and economic importance. Over the previous century, anthropogenic development and the introduction of non-indigenous coastal plant species has lead to a degradation of many of the Bay of Plenty regions’ coastal dune environments. Restoring these sections of coastline to their natural state strengthens the barrier they provide between coastal developments and the coastal ocean, whilst also promoting the growth of native plant species and improving habitat for local macro-invertebrate species. The influence of vegetation on aquifer levels and aeolian sediment transport in the dune and foredune was investigated at Matakana Island in the Western Bay of Plenty. Monitoring of the water table between March and November 2010 was undertaken at two adjacent sample sites, with different dominant overlying vegetation, Ammophila arenaria and Spinifex sericeus. During this time, aeolian sediment transport rates were also monitored through the deployment of sediment traps and two small climate stations. Results showed that aquifer levels beneath the dune face were highly variable. Fluctuations occurred at a range of time scales, stemming from variations in tide, rainfall and profile shape. Short-term fluctuation was primarily linked to tidal forcing. Tidal fluctuations were observed in the aquifer, and differed from tidal fluctuations directly offshore in their shape and amplitude, with some lag between tide and aquifer fluctuations also evident. Aquifer fluctuation shape and lag, and differences between sample sites were linked to the beach drainage capability through aquifer porosity and permeability; hydraulic conductivity; and transmissivity. Long-term change in beach profile shape further influenced aquifer levels, with an accreting beach resulting in an elevating average aquifer level and an eroding beach resulting in a diminishing aquifer level. Aeolian sediment deposition varied greatly across the cross-shore profile. Transport rates were limited by a small beach width when high tides combined with storm surge and wave run-ups limiting the source area. Rainfall further reduced transport potential when coinciding with high wind speed events. Sediment deposition was evenly distributed in the Spinifex dominated dune system, whilst deposition in the Ammophila dune primarily occurred at the seaward limit of vegetation growth. This pattern of deposition is linked to the characteristics of each species, primarily their average height and growth density. Sediment deposition differences between sites explain variances in sediment compaction which alters dune porosity and permeability at each site. Greater porosity and permeability in the Spinifex dominated dune saw the aquifer draining more readily. Lower beach aquifer levels aid accretion and greaten the source for onshore aeolian sediment transport. Spinifex dominated dunes are therefore suggested to provide healthier beach states on Bay of Plenty beaches. Advisors/Committee Members: de Lange, Willem P (advisor).

▼ One of the methods of reducing the amount of CO2 in the air is CO2 sequestration by dissolving the gas underground in an aquifer. In practice,there will be impurity gases in the injected CO2 stream or in the aquifer, which inﬂuence the dissolution rate of the CO2 stream. This research aims at ﬁnding a method to evaluate and calculate this inﬂuence. We focused on H2S and CH4. We found that given the speciﬁc circumstances underground and with added impurity gases, it is advisable to use an Equation of State, for which we chose Peng-Robinson. For the ﬁrst simulation with a large aquifer model, we were able to see the difference between a stream of pure CO2 and mixtures of CO2 with H2S and CH4 respectively. We observed that the gas stream with CH4 moved considerably faster along the aquifer than the streams of pure CO2 or CO2 mixed with H2S. On the other hand, we found that the dissolution rate was higher when H2S was present in the mixture. In the dissolution process, we see a large inﬂuence of instabilities on the dissolution rate as a result of density differences in the aquifer. However, the resolution of the large aquifer model did not allow to evaluate this inﬂuence sufﬁciently. In two consequent steps, we adapted our simulation model. First, we used a small scale model using only a fraction of the large aquifer model, thus considerably reducing the calculation time. Next, we increase the resolution of the small scale model. This higher resolution gave considerably more accurate results, reﬂecting the differences between the three cases and the inﬂuence of the instabilities in the aquifer. We concluded that the simulation based on the small scale and high resolution model yields accurate and reliable results. However, the calculated outcomes have to be corrected for the difference in boundary conditions between the large and small scale models.

▼ Recent surface mass balance changes in space and time over the polar ice sheets need to be better constrained in order to estimate the ice-sheet contribution to sea-level rise. The mass balance of any ice body is obtained by subtracting mass losses from mass gains. In response to climate changes of the recent decades, ice-sheet mass losses have increased, making ice-sheet mass balance negative and raising sea level. In this work, I better quantify the mass gained by snowfall across the polar ice sheets; I target specific regions over both Greenland and West Antarctica where snow accumulation changes are occurring due to rising air temperature. Southeast Greenland receives 30% of the total snow accumulation of the Greenland ice sheet. In this work, I combine internal layers observed in ice-penetrating radar data with firn cores to derive the last 30 years of accumulation and to measure the spatial pattern of accumulation toward the southeast coastline. Below 1800 m elevation, in the percolation zone, significant surface melt is observed in the summer, which challenges both firn-core dating and internal-layer tracing. While firn-core drilling at 1500 m elevation, liquid water was found at ~20-m depth in a firn aquifer that persisted over the winter. The presence of this water filling deeper pore space in the firn was unexpected, and has a significant impact on the ice sheet thermal state and the estimate of mass balance made using satellite altimeters. Using a 400-MHz ice-penetrating radar, the extent of this widespread aquifer was mapped on the ground, and also more extensively from the air with a 750-MHz airborne radar as part of the NASA Operation IceBridge mission. Over three IceBridge flight campaigns (2011-2013), based on radar data, the firn aquifer is estimated to cover ~30,000 km2 area within the wet-snow zone of the ice sheet. I use repeated flightlines to understand the temporal variability of the water trapped in the firn aquifer and to simulate its lateral flow, following the gentle surface slope (< 1�) and undulated topography of the ice sheet surface toward the ablation zone of the ice sheet. The fate of this water is currently unknown; water drainage into crevasses and at least partial runoff is inferred based on the analysis of radar profiles from different years. I also present results from a field expedition in West Antarctica, where data collection combined high-frequency (2-18 GHz) radar data and shallow (< 20 m) firn cores from Central West Antarctica, crossing the ice divide toward the Amundsen Sea. The radar-derived accumulation rates show a 75% increase (+0.20 m w.eq. y-1) of net snow accumulation from the ice divide, toward the Amundsen Sea for a 70-km transect, assuming annual isochrones being detected in the radar profile. On the Ross Sea side of the divide, with accumulation rates less than 0.25 m w.eq. y-1 and significant wind redistribution, only a multi-annual stratigraphy is detected in the radar profile. Using radar, I investigated the small-scale variability within a radius of ~1.5 km…

▼ The use of numerical modeling software to characterize groundwater contaminant fate and transport requires an understanding of the distribution of hydraulic properties of the aquifer. As the complexity of this distribution increases, a more sophisticated understanding is required. Modeling contaminant transport in bedrock aquifers requires that the spatial distributions of highly conductive geologic features are characterized along with the hydraulic transmissivities of those features (Shapiro, 2003). The goal of this research is to refine the numerical model of a highly transmissive crystalline aquifer by characterizing the spatial variability of the hydraulic transmissivity using the attenuation of the ground penetrating radar (GPR) signal. Slug tests were performed in ten bedrock wells, located within and surrounding a highly conductive zone. The transmissivities measured in these wells ranged from 1.5 E-1 ft²/day to 4.2 E+2 ft²/day; values greater than 100 ft²/day were measured in four of the bedrock wells. A GPR survey was conducted over the well network and five transects were selected for further analysis. The location of the ten wells were projected onto the nearest GPR transects and the GPR data from each location were isolated for further analysis. A visual inspection GPR signal data indicates that the signal reflection increases at locations where high transmissivity values were measured. This relationship was attributed to an increased volume of fluid present within the fractures; a characteristic previously used to identify productive bedrock aquifers at multiple sites (e.g., Porsani, 2005, Halihan, 2008). The correlation between the transmissivities and the analyzed signal was evaluated at the four locations where higher transmissivities were measured. No correlation was observed when all four points were included. When the data collected from well BW-18 were excluded from the analysis, a near perfect correlation was observed for the remaining three points. The transmissivity measured in BW-18 was the highest value measured onsite. This suggests that the aperture thickness, a characteristic which is not identified using GPR, may play a significant role in the distribution of transmissivities at this location. The remaining GPR data were transformed to the corresponding hydraulic conductivity using a linear regression fitted to the three correlating points. The values calculated were used as the conductivity values for the model layer corresponding to the shallow bedrock. The resulting model was no more accurate than an identical model created using only the measured transmissivities. Consistent with previous findings, this investigation determined that GPR data collected by surficial geophysical methods is capable of characterizing highly transmissive regions. Since the spatial variations in the aperture thickness are not identified using this method, it is not appropriate for sites where significant variation is expected.

▼ The sustainable use of groundwater relies on building up three stages: exploration, development and management. The exploration is crucial to understand the capabilities and limitations of aquifer units; e.g. volume of available water and potential yield, distinction of recharge and discharge zones, and the groundwater quality are developed in this stage. In the Altiplano, groundwater is probably the most important water resource to supply domestic consumption and irrigation, since surficial bodies have been affected by reductions linked to drought events. The city of Oruro, Bolivia, in the Central Altiplano, is supplied solely with groundwater from a porous aquifer that has been utilized for decades; however, its hydrogeological characteristics are not fully understood due to the scarcity of data and limited resources to conduct long-term research. In order to develop the exploration of the aquifer units to the north of Oruro, this thesis presents studies aiming to fill gaps in the knowledge about their hydrogeological characteristics. A multidisciplinary approach including analysis of isotopic data and geoelectrical surveys was applied in this thesis; results and interpretations are based on data from previous studies and from sampling and measurements conducted recently within this work. The study subjects in this thesis include groundwater flow patterns inferred through isotopic characteristics, deduction of some geological features (fault mapping and delineation of bedrock) from changes in resistivity and estimation of aquifer parameters relating hydraulic properties and resistivity. Data acquisition during this work consisted of sampling and analysing isotopic compositions in water from precipitation, rivers and wells. Likewise, resistivity was obtained from surveys using electrical resistivity tomography and transient electromagnetic methods.Two aquifers were identified in the study area: unconsolidated sediments storing freshwater, currently under exploitation, overlying fractured bedrock that holds hydrothermal flows characterised by high temperature and salinity. Groundwater in the aquifers comes mainly from precipitation on the mountains, forming rivers that infiltrate laterally into the top aquifers, the natural discharge could have been located outside the limits of the study area, to the southwest; however, the cone of depression created by the wellfield supplying Oruro captures a substantial part of this groundwater. Isotopic characteristics of water in precipitation and groundwater at different depths were analysed to infer four circulation systems: (1) a shallow one receiving minor vertical infiltration, (2) the main system circulating through the unconsolidated sediments, (3) a transitional system between sediments and bedrock and (4) the deepest one, circulating through the bedrock fractures.Resistivity models obtained from geoelectrical surveys were analysed to infer the depth of the contact between sediments and bedrock; in the selected study area, it varies from a couple of meters to ~200 m. The…

▼ ABSTRACT SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL ANALYSIS OF STREAM RESTORATION EFFORTS IN DEPLETED AQUIFER SYSTEMS by Jeffrey C. Davids Master of Science in Geosciences Hydrology/Hydrogeology Option California State University, Chico Spring 2011 Recent declines in anadromous fish populations have led to several proposals for improving stream health in relation to fisheries. Many of the streams in consideration are impacted by a variety of intensive water uses including municipal, industrial, and agricultural. Consequently, in many cases, the streams have been rendered artificially ephemeral due to surface-water diversions and groundwater pumping. Decades of these practices has caused a lowering of the underlying groundwater table and a subsequent one-way connection between the stream and the aquifer. While extensive study has been conducted on how pumping impacts a stream (via stream depletion factors and analogous approaches), relatively little has been done to analyze how these systems can be restored to benefit fisheries. Specifically, how effective is it to reintroduce water into these depleted streams? To help answer this question, MODFLOW-2005 with the StreamFlow Routine Package (SFR2) was used to examine the (1) time scales, (2) spatial extents, and (3) magnitudes of fishery benefits obtained by reintroducing water into the streams of these historically depleted systems. Furthermore, what are the sensitivities of the timing, spatial extent, and magnitude of these benefits to changes in initial conditions, aquifer geometry, riparian vegetation, and aquifer and stream properties? Three (3) distinct flow Regimes emerged during the course of the parametric modeling investigation. First, Regime 1 occurs when the stream is discontinuous (i.e. dry stream reaches) for both the initial and steady states. Second, a stream that is initially discontinuous at the initial state that regains continuity as a new steady state is approached is classified as a Regime 2. Lastly, a Regime 3 system is one were the stream is fully continuous at both the initial and steady states. In general, the spatial extent of fishery benefits increases as the system moves from Regime 1 to Regime 2 to Regime 3. Restoration benefits in a Regime 1 system will always have a limited, ???discontinuous??? extent. Regime 2 has the most transient spatial extent, ranging from a discontinuous stream at the initial state to fully continuous stream at steady state. It should be pointed out, however, that fully continuous is not synonymous with fully recovered since the quantity and quality of the continuity are extremely important as well. Finally, restoration in a Regime 3 system has the immediate effect of full stream continuity, or maximum spatial extent. The timescales of fishery benefits observed during the course of this investigation range from the tens into the thousands of years and are a function of a myriad of variables. Some of the most significantly influential timescale variables considered include the size of the basin… Advisors/Committee Members: Mehl, Steffen W (advisor).

▼ In-Situ Chemical Oxidation (ISCO) injections were performed at Petro Stopping Centers 10 (Petro) in December 2013 and June 2015. The methodology was direct injection of a heavy oxidizer, RegenOx®, followed by a time-release oxygen compound, ORC Advanced®, into a plume of gasoline sitting on top of the water in the aquifer in hope that this remediate the aquifer. Both chemicals are registered trademarks of the Regenesis® Company. The levels of contaminates have dropped considerably. However, Petro has not achieved closure criteria according to RECAP standards. The site is classified as a GW-1B, subject to the most stringent of remediation standards, due to its ability to be used as a drinking water source. The analytical results show undulating contaminate levels, dropping to below detectable levels then resurging to levels above acceptable RECAP standards. Levels show steady decline in all the monitoring wells including downgradient monitoring wells. The undulating phenomenon can be explained by desorption of COCs, incidental spilling of gasoline, or the clay’s affinity for organics. Further investigation into the clay will provide a better idea of which hypothesis is closer to the truth. During a sampling event, 3/19/15, levels were below detectable concentrations in all samples. Lab error offers a possible explanation for this event, the site still has contamination on it, if that sampling event produced clean samples is highly suspect. The injections were successful at bringing gasoline contaminate concentrations down directly after an injection period. The method is effective and easy to apply. The resurgence of contaminates at this site is up for discussion and further study but, the method of remediation used at Petro is an effective tool in remediating a gasoline contaminated aquifer. Suggestions for improving the effectiveness of this method with the use of other injection materials in conjunction with the chemicals used in this project are mentioned in the discussion and conclusion sections of this thesis. Data referenced in this thesis is publicly available at the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality document search website EDMS under the Agency Interest(AI) number 5962.

▼ Leakage of stored bulk phase CO₂ is of particular risk to sequestration in deep saline aquifers due to the fact that when injected into typical saline aquifers, the CO₂ rich gas phase has lesser density than the aqueous phase resulting in buoyancy driven flow of the fluids. As the CO₂ migrates upward, the security of its storage depends upon the trapping mechanisms that counteract the migration. While there are a variety of trapping mechanisms the mechanism serving as motivation for this research is local capillary trapping. Local capillary trapping occurs during buoyancy-driven migration of bulk phase CO₂ within a saline aquifer (Saadatpoor, 2009). When the rising CO₂ plume encounters a region where capillary entry pressure is locally larger than average, CO₂ accumulates beneath the region. While research is continued by means of numerical simulation, research at the bench scale is needed to validate the conclusions made from simulation work. Presented is the development of a bench scale experiment whose objective is to assess local capillary trapping. The initial step in accomplishing this objective is to understand the fluid dynamics of CO₂ and brine in a saline aquifer which is categorized as two phase immiscible buoyancy driven displacement. Parameters influencing this displacement include density, viscosity, wettability and heterogeneity. A bench scale environment created to be analogous to CO₂ and brine in a saline aquifer is created in a quasi-two dimensional experimental apparatus, which allows for observation of plume migration at ambient conditions. A fluid pair analogous to supercritical CO₂ and brine is developed to mimic the density and viscosity relationship found at pressure and temperature typical of storage aquifers. The influences of viscosity ratio, density differences, porous medium wettability and heterogeneity are observed in series of experimental sequences. Three different fluid pairs with different viscosity ratios and density differences are used to assess density and viscosity influences. Porous media of varying grain size and wettability are used to assess the influence of heterogeneity and wettability. Results are qualitatively consistent with theoretical results and those from previous works. Advisors/Committee Members: Bryant, Steven L. (advisor), Sepehrnoori, Kamy (committee member).

▼ This multi-disciplinary study analyzed the barriers and opportunities of managed aquifer recharge (MAR) in the world. Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) is a collective name for techniques that infiltrate and store water in an aquifer. Increasing water scarcity and high net groundwater abstraction rates are challenging issues now and in the future. Currently two-third of the global population experiences water scarcity at least once a month. In a world with increasing water issues, adequate water management becomes more vital. Groundwater users and ecosystems suffer from the consequences of inadequate groundwater management. Global population growth will increase the pressure on groundwater sources and in combination with climate change, water supply and demand will show increasing fluctuations. MAR could bring solutions to regions with water scarcity and groundwater management issues worldwide. The focus of this study is on identifying hydrogeological, climate, socioeconomic and institutional boundary conditions for MAR. These conditions are compared with a database of existing MAR projects. This specific comparison leads to new data in this area of research. It creates new insights of the barriers and opportunities for MAR worldwide. The study shows an inventory of the 14 available MAR techniques and the (boundary) conditions for each technique. Other products are a set of 12 different hydrogeological boundary conditions, 23 relevant cost factors and 17 objectives for using MAR. There are 22 opportunities and 22 barriers to the implementation of MAR, for hydrogeological, climate, socioeconomic and institutional settings. The greatest opportunity can be found in arid and semi-arid regions because 1) they have the highest need for MAR and because 2) current practices are more seen in humid regions. The scientific insights provided by this study can add clarity to science, as much of the knowledge on MAR was more fragmented up till now. In addition, the study clearly shows that there are still several knowledge gaps in the field of MAR and that further MAR potential studies are recommended. This study could help education programs on water storage and retention worldwide, in showing the importance of the adequate management of aquifers, including the barriers that might have to be overcome. This study clarifies the importance of adequate implementation of MAR techniques worldwide. Found insights can form a new direction in groundwater policy worldwide.

▼ Over half of total flows in the global river network are composed of non-perennial rivers. This indicates the importance of non-perennial river systems in supporting the biodiversity. It has been established that groundwater is one of the elements that control the flow regimes and classification (whether perennial or not) of a river system. However, the use of hydrogeological characteristics to establish the influence of groundwater on non-perennial river systems remain to be widely unpublished. This study, therefore, intends to conceptualize and explain the role of hydrogeological characteristics in non-perennial rivers, using the Heuningnes catchment in the Western Cape Province of South Africa as a case study. The study has argued that thorough characterization of aquifers is essential in order to adequately establish the extent of aquifer-river connectivity and how groundwater influences flows and chemical loading in non-perennial river systems. The study has three objectives namely: (i) to determine the aquifer characteristics (ii) to characterise the aquifer-river interaction and (iii) to conceptualize the groundwater flow system. Records review, field, analytical and laboratory-based methods were used to collect and interpret geological, groundwater level, pumping test, hydro-chemical and environmental stable isotopic data in order to characterise groundwater occurrence, flow system and its interaction with the rivers of the study area. Water samples were taken from groundwater, surface water and rainfall during both dry and wet periods. Results show that the study area has a topography-controlled water table with shallow depth to groundwater levels ranging on average from 3 - 10 m, which result into largely a local groundwater flow system. Transmissivity values determined from constant rate pumping test range between 0.17 and 1.74 m2/day. Results exhibit that the low transmissivity values are associated with the weathered nature of the Table Mountain sandstone and the unfractured Bokkeveld shale formations. Hydrochemical data results indicate that both groundwater and river samples in the upstream part of the study area are characterised as fresh water with TDS values of less than 1000 mg/l while the downstream part has saline waters with TDS ranging from 2000 – 35000 mg/l. Results also show that Na-Cl is the dominant water composition for both groundwater and river water. The order of major ion dominance is similar for the two water sources, with concentration ranges from high to low in the order of Na+>Mg2+>Ca2+>K+ and Cl->SO42->HCO3- for cations and anions respectively. The similar patterns and trends in salinity and major ion data suggest the connectivity between the aquifer and the river. Environmental stable isotope data indicate river samples in upstream areas having depleted δ18O (-4.3 to -5.12‰) and δ2H (-22.9 to -19.3‰) signatures similar to groundwater indicating a stable and continuous groundwater contribution to the river flows. Meanwhile, high evaporative enrichment of δ18O (1.13 to 7.08‰)… Advisors/Committee Members: Mengistu, Haile (advisor), Kanyerere, Thokozani (advisor).

▼ This project evaluates the feasibility of groundwater banking in the Central Sacramento County Basin (Central Basin) using a Three Dimensional (3-D) model. The 3-D model was developed using Groundwater Modeling System (GMS) with MODFLOW. The Central Basin is located in Sacramento County in northern California. The Central Basin under study in the current project is bounded by three rivers (on the west by the Sacramento River, on the north by the American River, on the south by the Cosumnes and Mokelumne rivers), and on the east by the Sierra-Nevada mountain range. The surface area of the Central Basin is approximately 388 square miles (248,000 acres), and receives an average annual precipitation of 14 to 20 inches. Sacramento County???s Sacramento Central Groundwater Authority (SCGA) manages the basin, provides guidelines and recommendations for the long-term sustainability of the Central Basin. According to SCGA, the annual average sustainable groundwater extraction rate from the basin could be as high as 273,000 acre-feet per year (AF/year). The current extraction rate stands at 250,000 AF/year. The current and future water demands will increase due the population increase and extended periods of droughts. The increase on water demands will most likely cause the extraction rate from the Central Basin to be reaching the upper extraction limit of 273,000 AF/year. With growing needs for groundwater, sustainable approaches utilizing groundwater system are to be considered as an integral part of a water resources management plan. One approach to groundwater sustainable solution is to artificially-recharge groundwater aquifers. This study focuses on the potential for groundwater recharge in the Central Basin for three water years (wet year, above normal year and critical year). In order to accomplish the objective of this study, a conceptual groundwater model was created. The model assumptions, input parameters and boundary conditions are discussed later in this report. The simulation analysis of Central Basin model involved developing a conceptual model of the hydrogeology and surface water/groundwater interactions that exist within the project site. A conceptual model is a general description of the site, including the groundwater formations, geologic layers, subsurface hydrogeology, and inflow/outflow to the aquifer system. The Central Basin model was developed in multiple phases, using various tools available within the GMS computer software. First, the stratigraphy and geology of the Central Basin including the top soils formation were developed. Groundwater and soil properties were assigned to each of the layers created based on theoretical values obtained for literature. Three different water year types were selected: critical (2008), above normal (2005) and wet (2006). Data for precipitation/percolation, rivers/seepage, and the groundwater usage through the extraction wells were applied to the model for each of the selected years. The data included used in this report was obtained from several… Advisors/Committee Members: Merayyan, Saad.

▼ The mixing zone developed at freshwater-seawater interface is one of the most important features in complex coastal hydrogeologic systems, which controls subsurface flow and reactive transport dynamics. Freshwater-seawater mixing-zone development is influenced by many physical and chemical processes, such as characteristics of geologic formation, hydrodynamic fluctuations of groundwater and seawater levels, fluid-rock interactions, and others. Wide mixing zones have been found in many coastal aquifers all over the world. However, the mechanisms responsible for wide mixing zones are not well understood. In this thesis, two hypotheses were proposed to explain wide mixing zones in coastal aquifers: (1) kinetic mass transfer coupled with transient conditions, which create the movement of the mixing zone, may widen mixing zones; and (2) aquifer stratification may widen the mixing zone. The hypotheses were tested by both multiscale numerical simulations and laboratory experiments. Numerical simulations were based on a variable-density groundwater model by varying mass transfer parameters, including immobile porosity, mobile porosity, and mass transfer coefficient, and the hydraulic conductivity contrast between aquifer layers. Laboratory experiments were conducted in a quasi-two-dimensional tank, where real beach sands were installed and foodstuff dyes were used to visualize the development of freshwater-seawater mixing zone. Major conclusions included (1) the mixing zone can be significantly widened when the mass transfer timescale and the period of transient boundary is comparable due to the nonequilibrium mass transfer effects; and (2) a thick mixing zone occurs in low-permeability layer when it overlays upon a fast flow layer. These results not only improve the understanding of the dynamics of mixing-zone development and its associated geochemical processes in coastal aquifers, but also identify hydrogeologic conditions for the model of sharp-interface approximation to be valid. In addition to better understanding the mechanisms and dynamics of mixing zone, this thesis also investigates cost-effective management of coastal groundwater resources. To protect and conserve limited water recourses in coastal regions, interest in aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) has been growing in recent years. ASR is a promising strategy for water resources management and has been widely used in many contaminated and saline aquifers. However, its performance may be significantly constrained by mass transfer effects due to the mobilization of solutes initially residing in immobile domains. Better understanding of kinetic mass transfer effects on ASR is needed in order to aid the decision-making process. A numerical model is developed to simulate ASR performance by combining the convergent and divergent dispersion models with a first-order mass transfer model. By analyzing the concentration history at the pumping well, we obtain simple and effective relationships for investigating ASR efficiency under various mass transfer… Advisors/Committee Members: Luo, Jian (Committee Chair), Georgakakos, Aris (Committee Member), Kitanidis, Peter (Committee Member), Roberts, Philip (Committee Member), Yang, Jiawen (Committee Member).

▼ This is an attempt to understand the important factors that control the occurrence, development and hydrochemical evolution of groundwater resources in sedimentary multi aquifer systems. The primary objective of this work is an integrated study of the hydrogeology and hydrochemistry with a view to elucidate the hydrochemical evolution of groundwater resources in the aquifer systems. The study is taken up in a typical coastal sedimentary aquifer system evolved under fluvio-marine environment in the coastal area of Kerala, known as the Kuttanad. The present study has been carried out to understand the aquifer systems, their inter relationships and evolution in the Kuttanad area of Kerala. The multi aquifer systems in the Kuttanad basin were formed from the sediments deposited under fluvio-marine and fluvial depositional environments and the marine transgressions and regressions in the geological past and palaeo climatic conditions influenced the hydrochemical environment in these aquifers. The evolution of groundwater and the hydrochemical processes involved in the formation of the present day water quality are elucidated from hydrochemical studies and the information derived from the aquifer geometry and hydraulic properties. Kuttanad area comprises of three types of aquifer systems namely phreatic aquifer underlain by Recent confined aquifer followed by Tertiary confined aquifers. These systems were formed by the deposition of sediments under fluvio-marine and fluvial environment. The study of the hydrochemical and hydraulic properties of the three aquifer systems proved that these three systems are separate entities. The phreatic aquifers in the area have low hydraulic gradients and high rejected recharge. The Recent confined aquifer has very poor hydraulic characteristics and recharge to this aquifer is very low. The Tertiary aquifer system is the most potential fresh water aquifer system in the area and the groundwater flow in the aquifer is converging towards the central part of the study area (Alleppey town) due to large scale pumping of water for water supply from this aquifer system. Mixing of waters and anthropogenic interferences are the dominant processes modifying the hydrochemistry in phreatic aquifers. Whereas, leaching of salts and cation exchange are the dominant processes modifying the hydrochemistry of groundwater in the confined aquifer system of Recent alluvium. Two significant chemical reactions modifying the hydrochemistry in the Recent aquifers are oxidation of iron in ferruginous clays which contributes hydrogen ions and the decomposition of organic matter in the aquifer system which consumes hydrogen ions. The hydrochemical environment is entirely different in the Tertiary aquifers as the groundwater in this aquifer system are palaeo waters evolved during various marine transgressions and regressions and these waters are being modified by processes of leaching of salts, cation exchange and chemical reactions under strong reducing environment. It is proved that the salinity observed in the…

▼ The economic importance of groundwater in the Greater Accra Region cannot be overemphasized, since supply from boreholes and wells continues to be the most dependable alternative sources of water for most rural and urban communities in the region. Three different consolidated hard rocks underlie the region making it difficult to produce volumes of groundwater for supplies. Demand for portable water has led to the drilling of large numbers of boreholes. This study statistically assesses the general conditions of groundwater resources for successful exploitation, classify areas for prolific groundwater exploration and assess the quality of water in the region to be used for domestic purposes. Statistical approach was adopted to compare the variability and distribution of specific capacity and transmissivity values of existing boreholes in the various hydrogeological units. Hydrogeological units were classified using Krasny’s transmissivity classification in order to delineate prospective zones for groundwater exploration. The results from the Krasny’s transmissivity classification showed Transmissivity coefficient of 197m2/day, 197.3m2/day and 211.3m2/day for Dahomeyan, Granitoids and Togo hydrogeological units respectively. All the hydrogeological units belonged to the class of transmissivity magnitude class II which depict high transmissivity coefficient that suggests abstraction potential suitable for regional supply. The transmissivity indices are 6.04, 6.23 and 6.24 for Birimian Granitoids, Dahomeyan formation and Togo formation respectively. These categorised all the three hydrogeological units into moderate variation in a heterogeneous environment but the Togo formation being the most prolific. Based on WQI most of samples are suitable for domestic purpose except for few locations, which show values beyond the permissible limits that cannot be used without treatment. R and Q-mode hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) are combined with factor analysis with principal components and varimax rotation, to determine field associations among the sample points, and their most possible sources of origin. R-mode and Q-mode HCA results showed linkages in general fields that suggest the varying geochemical sources in the three hydrogeological units. Physico-chemical parameters of the groundwater showed low pH values ranges suggesting acidic water in all the hydrogeological units. Nitrate values ranged between 0.0 and 2.73 mg/l which are within WHO standard guideline but very high in few samples suggesting pollution introduced by anthropogenic activities. Correlation analysis between the major ions and physical parameters showed positive correlation between TDS and Na, Mg, Ca that were significant at levels of significance above 0.5 for all the three hydrogeological units suggesting mineralisation through rock weathering processes. Piper Trilinear diagrams showed Na-Cl, Ca- Mg-Cl, and Ca–Mg–HCO3- are the dominant water type in the study area. Multivariate statistical methods employed to determine the factors that influenced…

▼ One of the most important public policy issues of our time, both in the U.S. and abroad, is the management of water resources. A technique devised in recent years to help manage these resources is aquifer storage and recovery (ASR), which allows storage of water in underground aquifers instead of above-ground reservoirs or storage tanks. ASR is growing in use worldwide, more rapidly in some areas than in others. The storage technique is complex in that it entails thorough and site-specific analysis of hydrologic, geologic, and geochemical conditions. Because of its complexity and unfamiliarity to the general public, decisions regarding ASR use and regulation could easily be limited to a small group of experts rather than opened to public opinion. It thus provides an excellent opportunity for examining the policy-making process for such scientific and technological issues in general. The fundamental question posed in this study is this: in addition to science, what elements—social, political, economic, or other—have influenced the decision-making process regarding the acceptance and implementation of aquifer storage and recovery? The hypothesis is that ASR generally remains the domain of scientists and engineering professionals unless a specific event, or sequence of events, propels it into the public policy arena. At that time, many other factors begin to shape the way decisions are made regarding ASR implementation and/or regulation. Science generally remains an important aspect of the decision-making process, but becomes only one element among many other considerations. A series of case studies in Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina was used to examine how decisions have been made regarding aquifer storage and recovery. Florida and South Carolina have both implemented ASR, while Georgia has, at least temporarily, elected not to test the technique. It is expected that many aspects of the case study results can be generalized to other locations and circumstances, relative to ASR as well as other scientific policy issues.

▼ Nearly 20-percent of the wheat, corn, cotton and cattle produced in the United States are made possible by the hydrologic resources of the High Plains Aquifer (HPA) (NRCS, 2017). Despite being a source of agricultural prosperity, this aquifer has long been subject to overdraft including reductions in saturated thickness exceeding 50m in the southern extents (Haacker et al., 2016). We follow Hornbeck et al. (2014, 2015) in comparing economic outcomes among counties inside the HPA to similar counties within 100km from the aquifer boundary, building on this research by also evaluating the impact of initial groundwater endowments as an exogenous measure of irrigation access. Utilizing a hedonic pricing model based on Ricardian theory of land valuation, we choose to examine irrigation intensity, land values, and population density using census data at the county scale to measure the marginal benefit of groundwater. These economic outcomes are examined across ranked groupings of initial saturated thickness for three distinct time periods: approximate pre-development of the aquifer (1925-1945), during the height of irrigation expansion (1950-1992), and during contemporary time periods of irrigation water shortages (1997-2012). Results indicate that previous studies which have regarded the HPA as a homogeneous unit overlook the true marginal contributions of groundwater. We find that the counties with the largest initial endowments of groundwater in the HPA have increased land values by as much as 42-percent during the height of irrigation expansion, and more importantly have maintained the longest lasting economic benefits compared to counties with lower initial saturated thickness and those outside the aquifer. Our results differ from previous studies (i.e., Feng et al., 2012) as we find no statistical relationship between access to groundwater (or aquifer depletion) and population density.
