Contaminant discharge and uncertainty estimates from passive flux meter measurements
[1] The passive flux meter (PFM) measures local cumulative water and contaminant fluxes at an observation well. Conditional stochastic simulation accounting for both spatial correlation and data skewness is introduced to interpret passive flux meter observations in terms of probability distributions of discharges across control planes (transects) of wells. An estimator of the effective number o...
متن کاملField-scale evaluation of the passive flux meter for simultaneous measurement of groundwater and contaminant fluxes.
A new method, passive flux meter (PFM), has been developed and field-tested for simultaneously measuring contaminant and groundwater fluxes in the saturated zone at hazardous waste sites. The PFM approach uses a sorptive permeable medium placed in either a borehole or monitoring well to intercept contaminated groundwater and release "resident" tracers. The sorbent pack is placed in a groundwate...
متن کاملMODSharp: Regional-scale numerical model for quantifying groundwater flux and contaminant discharge into the coastal zone
In this paper the development of a quasi-three-dimensional numerical model that can be used for quantifying groundwater inputs and associated contaminant discharged from coastal aquifers into the coastal zone at a regional scale is presented. The present model is called MODSharp. In order to handle problems at a regional scale, the sharp interface approach which is used for conceptualising seaw...
متن کاملMagnitude and directional measures of water and Cr(VI) fluxes by passive flux meter.
A new configuration of the passive fluxmeter (PFM) is presented that provides for simultaneous measurements of both the magnitude and the direction of ambient groundwater specific discharge qo and Cr(VI) mass flux J(Cr). The PFM is configured as a cylindrical unit with an interior divided into a center section and three outer sectors, each packed with a granular anion exchange resin having high...
متن کاملUncertainty versus variability in upper ocean carbon flux estimates
The recent article written by Moran et al. (2003) (herein referred to as M2003) poses the question whether thorium234 (234Th) provides an accurate record of particulate organic carbon (POC) export from the upper ocean. Although there is little argument that 234Th : 238U disequilibrium can be attributed to particle flux, we agree that there are still many unknowns regarding the factors that cont...
