Karst groundwater management by defining protection zones based on regional geological structures and groundwater flow fields
Karst regions, occupy approximately 25% of the land surface of the earth. Karst aquifers are often major sources of water supply in these areas. However, karst aquifers are generally considered to be particularly vulnerable to pollution and anthropogenic impacts. Large withdrawals of water in karst areas for municipal, agricultural, and industrial use may competitively affect water supply in su...
متن کاملGroundwater Flow Models
In general, models are conceptual descriptions or approximations that describe physical systems using mathematical equations; they are not exact descriptions of physical systems or processes. By mathematically representing a simplified version of a hydrogeological system, reasonable alternative scenarios can be predicted, tested, and compared. The applicability or usefulness of a model depends ...
متن کاملMass Conserving Schemes for Saturated Groundwater Flow
Local mass conservation is of great importance for accurate simulation of fluid flows, especially if the resulting velocity field is to be coupled to a transport equation. Previous work on simulation of saturated groundwater flows have used both mixed finite element methods and discontinuous Galerkin methods to achieve local mass conservation. However, legacy code using a continuous Galerkin fi...
متن کاملGroundwater Flow and Salinity Intrusion Simulation in Malekan Plain Aquifer
Due to groundwater overextraction, during the recent years, Malekan plain aquifer has been faced to a risk of increasing salination. The groundwater flow model of the plain was designed, invesitagion of groundwater flow regime and precise hydraulic parameters estimation, utilizing the various method such as geological surveys, tomography methods, hydrochemical analysis and simulation of aquife...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
