Hill. MF&M convened at the Colorado School of Mines on nine occasions commencing in 1998. Past attendees recall friendly (sometimes heated!) debates, lunch with luminaries—like Gregory J. Hobbs, Colorado State Supreme Court Justice, and James Eklund, lead negotiator of the Colorado River Drought Contingency Plan—dinners at Table Mountain Inn, and late-night pool at the Ace.</p><p>Following the challenges posed by COVID, the 10th rendition of MF&M convened in 2022 at Princeton University. The conference was a great success, sustaining the vibrance of nearly three decades by bringing private, public, and academic sector scientists together to share applications and bleeding-edge research and development of (mostly free and open-source) simulation codes and support software. While COVID challenges and the change in venue might have been anticipated to affect attendance, the 2022 crowd was right in line with previous meetings and attendees expressed genuine joy at rubbing shoulders again.</p><p>The “Changing World” theme of the 2022 conference could not have been more topical. Groundwater is now the subject of a series of articles in the New York Times. Such press coverage of groundwater has historically been occasional at best. What might our planet and its 8 billion population as of November 2022 be like without convenient access to local clean groundwater? We might discover the answer to this sooner and in more places in the world than we ever imagined.</p><p>This Special Issue emphasizes advances in computational methods and codes for evaluating groundwater data, availability, quality, at a range of scales; plus novel methods for communicating to decision makers and the broader community. To begin, Engdahl describes groundwater modeling using the innate capabilities of quantum computing. He notes that “…very little about how a QCP [quantum computing platform] … is the same as how our current BDCs [binary digital computers] work … Next generation GW models should not just mimic our current models but should instead address frustrations or deficiencies while building new capabilities, like better UQ for predictions.”</p><p>Next up, two groups of authors address certain challenges of model inputs. Brookfield et al. test four approaches to determining “Irrigation pumping – how much?”, while Ma et al. use artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods to explore “Water levels – how deep?” at the CONUS scale using Random Forest techniques. Two challenges posed by groundwater quality concerns are then presented. Ozbek et al. evaluate data gaps in the delineation of a PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic acid) plume using PlumeTrackerTM; while Khambhammettu et al. present geologic facies modeling of properties important to contaminant temporal persistence using Traveling Pilot Points (TRIPS) and an iterative ensemble smoot","PeriodicalId":12866,"journal":{"name":"Groundwater","volume":"62 1","pages":"4-5"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gwat.13378","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139038285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These forces vary over time, resulting in a state of dynamic equilibrium in the system. The major hydrological processes in coastal aquifer systems are salt water intrusion and submarine groundwater discharge, which are interdependent. Monitoring these complex processes is crucial for sustainable coastal zone management but poses a significant research challenge. In this study, we demonstrate the effectiveness of non-invasive geophysical techniques, specifically the time-lapse electrical resistivity imaging method, in conjunction with groundwater monitoring, for monitoring coastal groundwater dynamics in an unconfined aquifer at varying time scales and hydrogeological settings present at formerly glaciated sites worldwide. We generated two-dimensional baseline salt water intrusion maps for the test site, located on the coast of Rhode Island, USA. The time-lapse electrical resistivity survey method enables the rapid estimation of fresh groundwater discharge. Our approach offers insight into the mechanisms and seasonably variable salt water–freshwater interactions in unconfined heterogeneous aquifers. Although the results are site-specific, their implications are broad and may stimulate other studies related to sea to land pollution (sea water intrusion) and land to sea pollution (groundwater discharge) in heterogeneous coastal aquifer settings.</p>","PeriodicalId":12866,"journal":{"name":"Groundwater","volume":"62 4","pages":"513-526"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138833705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to unravel the mechanisms underlying the phenomenon via numerical simulations for variably saturated, density-driven flow and solute transport in porous media. The simulation results indicate that the existence of non-fresh groundwater at the water table is attributed to the upward mass flux in the saturated zone near the coast, which transports solute from deeper groundwater toward the water table. With high hydraulic conductivity, the upward mass flux becomes prominent at shallower elevations because of the high Darcy flux and the shallow saline groundwater. The upward mass flux has two main drivers, upward advection by the upward flow component and transverse dispersion by the seaward flow component. The advective mass flux dominates over the transverse dispersion in the deep part of the saturated zone where only groundwater with sea water salinity exists. In contrast, the transverse dispersion becomes more pronounced than the upward advection in the shallow saturated zone just beneath the water table and in the unsaturated zone immediately above the water table. Our findings help interpret the unconventional salinity distributions observed and elucidate the unique dynamics of groundwater flow and solute transport in highly permeable coastal aquifers.</p>","PeriodicalId":12866,"journal":{"name":"Groundwater","volume":"62 4","pages":"527-536"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gwat.13383","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138886819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
