This study utilized an ensemble of event-based recharge calculation methods to address the problem of structural uncertainty for the example of the Western Mountain Aquifer (WMA), a Mediterranean karst aquifer located in Israel and the West Bank. Spatially distributed recharge estimates derived from the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) and the process-based infiltration model (PIM) were compared to site-specific, empirical regression models. The SWAT and PIM mean annual recharge estimates ranged from 32–34.6% of precipitation, almost equating to the results of empirical regression models (32–36%). Future recharge predictions under the influence of climate change were quantified by parameterizing the SWAT and PIM methods with a downscaled regional climate model of Israel. SWAT predicts a 23% decrease in recharge by 2051–2070 relative to 1981–2001. In contrast, PIM shows a 9% decrease, possibly due to the representation of infiltration through preferential flow pathways and exclusion of surface runoff processes. These divergent projections underline key methodological differences in the representation of hydrological processes. Nevertheless, both methods effectively provided good estimates of groundwater recharge. The recharge rates estimated from the various methods were integrated into MODFLOW to assess their relative impacts on groundwater storage dynamics. The ensemble of MODFLOW projected groundwater storage outputs can provide guidance for sustainable groundwater management in the region.","PeriodicalId":13013,"journal":{"name":"Hydrogeology Journal","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141865394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To accomplish this, both the finite volume point dilution method (FVPDM) test and active distributed temperature sensing (Active-DTS) measurements were conducted in a single piezometer in a chalk aquifer. The FVPDM is a single-well tracer experiment, that provides a measurement of the groundwater flow rate across the tested piezometer. Whereas the Active-DTS method was performed by deploying a fiber-optic (FO) cable outside the piezometer within the gravel filter. The Active-DTS method provided high spatial resolution and local groundwater flux estimates along the heated section. Numerical simulations were used to assess the distortion of the groundwater flow field induced by the presence of the well, demonstrating that the groundwater flux is maximum within the well screen, where the FVPDM test was conducted. In the immediate vicinity of the well, where the heated FO cable was installed, the groundwater flux is lower, and the flow pattern consisted of converging and diverging flow lines. Therefore, the position of the heated FO cable relative to the flow direction is critical and can have a significant impact on the estimation of the groundwater flux. Thus, even if the deployment of the FO cable within the gravel pack minimizes convective effects and opens up interesting perspectives to estimate vertical heterogeneities, this approach may be limited if the position of the FO cable relative to the flow direction is not well known.","PeriodicalId":13013,"journal":{"name":"Hydrogeology Journal","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141573936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The BBSS is located in the distal part of one of the largest fluvial megafans in the Gran Chaco Plain, South America. The BBSS is sparsely populated and frequently affected by extreme drought and flood events that cause severe problems to communities and economic production. This research aims to improve the current hydrogeologic understanding of the system through the development of the first integrated hydrogeological model for the region. The BBSS hydrogeological system exhibits a relatively simple hydraulic behavior at a regional scale. The definitions of four hydrogeological units (HU) were based on the simplification of the sedimentary column for the area, representing the fundamental characteristics of the dynamics of groundwater flows, their interconnections and the interactions with surface-water bodies and the atmosphere through direct recharge. Due to the lack of available transient data, the hydrogeological conceptual model was numerically tested under a steady-state flow regime. The numerical model was instrumental to test the plausibility of the proposed conceptual model and evaluate the water balance components for the entire aquifer system. The numerical model highlighted the role of stream/aquifer interaction as a primary discharge mechanism and the occurrence of flow exchanges between HUs. A newly installed groundwater monitolring network will support future transient simulations to investigate the temporal evolution of the system and explore management interventions to achieve environmental sustainability criteria.","PeriodicalId":13013,"journal":{"name":"Hydrogeology Journal","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141573935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To build resilience against water scarcity, groundwater may be an emergency or alternative water source, providing a temporary solution in the event of upstream contamination or during drought. Across western North America, buried-valley aquifers are a viable emergency water source. In Alberta, Canada, buried-valley aquifers supply domestic users; however, little is known about their capacity to supply larger water volumes. Using a regional groundwater model, this study investigated the capacity for buried-valley aquifers to supply water to the City of Edmonton, Alberta (population of 1 million) in an emergency scenario where the principal river water source was unusable. The numerical groundwater model has complex hydrostratigraphy, including glacial deposits, dipping bedrock units, and recently mapped Onoway, Beverly, and Stony buried-valley aquifers. Pumping rates varying from 10 to 375 ML/day were assessed for durations of 3, 30, and 365 days, corresponding to hypothetical response times for a range of emergencies. Although none of the aquifers could supply a sufficient volume of water for no change in service, it is possible that up to 190 ML/day could be sourced from groundwater for a period of 1 year. To achieve high rates of pumping, up to 13 production wells would be required in a buried-valley aquifer. The unique hydrogeological responses to hypothetical pumping scenarios also demonstrate the hydrogeology of buried-valley aquifers from a more holistic viewpoint as part of a regional groundwater flow system.","PeriodicalId":13013,"journal":{"name":"Hydrogeology Journal","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141573934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite their importance to the region, a comprehensive characterization of these aquifers has not been achieved yet. In this study, the horizon-assisted lithologic modeling (HALM) method is introduced to integrate horizon structures and well log data for aquifer characterization. By employing horizon restorations, the HALM method proves to be versatile in incorporating various geologic features into lithologic models. The HALM method was applied to characterize both the MEAS and the CLAS in the Louisiana and southwestern Mississippi regions. The resulting large-scale high-resolution hydrostratigraphic model provides a highly accurate representation of aquifer structures in regionally extensive hydrogeologic units, including synclines, angular unconformities, and faulting. Notably, the model highlights the presence of surficial coarse sediments, indicating significant groundwater recharge zones for the Southern Hills aquifer system, the Chicot aquifer, and the Sparta aquifer. Additionally, the Mississippi River alluvial aquifer and the Chicot aquifer are found to be thick and shallow, making them easily accessible for irrigation purposes. Furthermore, the model reveals significant connections between rivers and alluvial aquifers in northern Louisiana, with reduced river–aquifer contact as one approaches the Gulf of Mexico. Comparing the two aquifer systems, the CLAS exhibits relatively thick and extensive aquifers compared to the MEAS. This study not only contributes to advancements in geologic modeling techniques but also enhances the understanding of regional hydrogeology in the US Gulf Coastal Plain.","PeriodicalId":13013,"journal":{"name":"Hydrogeology Journal","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141502893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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 identify the hydrogeological mechanism responsible for changes to groundwater temperature associated with longwall coal mining.

The feature relative importance (FRI) of input variables contributing to groundwater temperature dynamics was quantified for a long-term groundwater monitoring dataset collected from the Ningtiaota Coalfield, Ordos Basin, China. Pre-mining disturbance groundwater temperatures were stable, and the XGBoost model identified the groundwater level of the respective monitoring wells to be the greatest predictor for variation in groundwater temperature. During mining disturbance, proximal monitoring wells exhibited a decline in groundwater temperature, where the FRI of groundwater temperature in an upgradient monitoring well increased by 151–662% relative to the pre-mining disturbance model. The monitoring of aquifer properties and stable isotope composition of groundwaters provided additional evidence to suggest groundwater temperature decreases were associated with increased recharge contributions from surficial Quaternary aquifers. Post-mining disturbance, groundwater temperature and aquifer specific storage demonstrated recovered to pre-mining conditions.

The UK Geoenergy Observatory (UKGEOS) in Glasgow was developed to provide an at-scale research facility designed to help de-risk mine-water geothermal usage. The limited knowledge of the hydrogeological systems altered by former mining activities is a key determinant of the long-term sustainability of water and heat abstraction/reinjection. This work presents a hydrogeological conceptual model developed using groundwater monitoring data obtained during the construction of the Observatory between 2020 and 2022, results from initial pumping tests performed in 2020, and results of hydrochemistry analysis from 25 sampling rounds collected between 2019 and 2022. The analysis of the data provides evidence of the dominant role of mine workings in controlling groundwater flow, with high intra-mine connectivity; increased fracturing in sandstones above mine workings; and limited inter-mine connectivity. Groundwater recharge is meteoric, mean residence times are >50 years, and there is a general upwards circulation from the deeper mine levels to the superficial deposits and the River Clyde. Faults play a significant role in limiting the extent of the highly transmissive mine workings, but there remains uncertainty surrounding the role of the faults in connecting different mine workings and their hydraulic behaviour in nonmined units. The conceptual model, that will be refined as new data become available, will be used to help guide monitoring and sampling programs and plan research activities in the Observatory.","PeriodicalId":13013,"journal":{"name":"Hydrogeology Journal","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141502895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Andesitic aquifers are of high interest in volcanic arc islands and subduction zones, where they constitute a strategic water resource. This review gathers a compilation of worldwide results and case studies to propose a generic hydrogeological conceptual model (GHCM). It is based on the geological conceptual model splitting the volcanic edifice, from upstream to downstream, into central, proximal, medial and distal zones. In this geological structure, the GHCM identifies where the main aquifer types (fractured lava, pyroclastic flows, and the volcano-sedimentary basins downstream) and the typical aquitards (lahars, fine pyroclastic falls and surges, indurated pyroclastic flow, and weathered rocks) are structured and organized. To integrate the evolution of volcanoes and some specific volcanic activities, a specific GHCM for old andesitic volcanoes or andesitic shield volcanoes is detailed. The paper also describes how the GHCM results are of use to hydrogeologists in terms of scale (from the lithological units to the regional scale), to effectively site water wells, and to sustainably manage groundwater resources in such aquifers. Among these various scales, the volcanic “flank continuum” is presented as the most adapted to support groundwater resources management. Several ways to improve this GHCM are suggested, notably to better consider the geological complexity of these aquifers.","PeriodicalId":13013,"journal":{"name":"Hydrogeology Journal","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141197891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
