Abstract—Adequate and reliable estimates of aquifer parameters are of utmost importance for proper management of vital groundwater resources. At present scenario, the ground water is polluted because of industrial waste disposed over the land and the contaminants are transported in the aquifer from one area to another area, which is depending on the characteristics of the aquifer and contaminan...

Groundwater in a coastal sand aquifer is enriched in arsenic as a result of historical discharges from an industrial facility on the central NSW coast. Subsequent investigations also identified arsenic in the soil within the saturated zone down-gradient of the source area. Arsenic concentrations in soil and groundwater decrease markedly along a narrow flow path towards a tidal river some 300 m ...

Groundwater ̄ow in fractured porous media can be realistically described using a dual-porosity approach. A popular numerical approach for simulation of groundwater ̄ow in dual-porosity media is the use of spatial discretization procedures based upon the ®nite element techniques. The computational e€ort for this technique strongly depends on both the number of unknowns and the number of time ste...

PEER REVIEWED PAPER (“REVIEW AND PUBLICATION PROCESS” CAN BE FOUND ON OUR WEB SITE) Introduction The use of technologies to capture and store CO2 is rapidly emerging as a potentially important tool for managing carbon emissions. Geological storage, defined as the process of injecting CO2 into geologic formations for the explicit purpose of avoiding atmospheric emission of CO2, is perhaps the mo...

Analyses of areal variations in the subsidence and rebound occurring over stressed aquifer systems, in conjunction with measurements of the hydraulic head fluctuations causing these displacements, can yield valuable information about the compressibility and storage properties of the aquifer system. Historically, stress-strain relationships have been derived from paired extensometer/piezometer i...

The water balance calculation and water quality are very important matters in the groundwater management. The water balance includes two parameters: input and output parameters. The input parameter is consisted from surface recharge (precipitation, irrigation return water, surfaces runoff recharge) and underground inflow (flow from adjacent aquifers). The underground inflow is an important fact...

Aquifer information carried by aquifer test data may be affected by the presence of a finite thickness skin around the wellbore. The mathematical treatment for an aquifer accounting for the skin zone can be characterized by five parameters, that is, the outer radius of the skin zone and the transmissivity and storativity for each of the skin and aquifer zones. Sensitivity analysis was performed...
