Spatial Distribution And Formation Of Groundwater Hydrochemistry In Huainan Coalfield, Wang Zitao, Liu Qimeng, Liu Yu Oct 2019

Spatial Distribution And Formation Of Groundwater Hydrochemistry In Huainan Coalfield, Wang Zitao, Liu Qimeng, Liu Yu

Coal Geology & Exploration

In order to study the spatial distribution of groundwater in Huainan coalfield and the intensity of various hydrochemical actions, the coalfied is divided into the northern district with thicker loose beds and the southern district with thinner loose beds. Hydrochemical test data of main water-inrushing aquifers in 16 mines in these two areas were collected and statistically analyzed, ion combination method and Gibbs diagram were used to study the groundwater hydrochemical characteristics of each aquifer in north and south areas. The results indicate that TDS of aquifer is positively correlated with the burial thickness of unconsolidated formation. With the increase …


Investigation Of Subsurface Stratigraphy And Groundwater Dynamics In The Mississippi River Delta, An Li Oct 2019

Investigation Of Subsurface Stratigraphy And Groundwater Dynamics In The Mississippi River Delta, An Li

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The Mississippi River Delta (MRD) is socioeconomically important to the state of Louisiana and the United States. Various types of land-water system data have been collected in the MRD. However, very few efforts have been made to utilize these datasets in modeling regional stratigraphy and groundwater dynamics in the MRD, especially for the upper 50 m of the depth. In this interval of depth, the Mississippi River and surrounding interdistributary bays intensively interact with the groundwater system. The lack of knowledge in regional stratigraphy and groundwater dynamics hinder an understanding of how hydrogeological setting affects processes such as surface-groundwater interaction, …


Modeling Land Subsidence Using Insar And Airborne Electromagnetic Data, Ryan G. Smith, R. Knight Apr 2019

Modeling Land Subsidence Using Insar And Airborne Electromagnetic Data, Ryan G. Smith, R. Knight

Geosciences and Geological and Petroleum Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Land subsidence as a result of groundwater overpumping in the San Joaquin Valley, California, is associated with the loss of groundwater storage and aquifer contamination. Although the physical processes governing land subsidence are well understood, building predictive models of subsidence is challenging because so much subsurface information is required to do so accurately. For the first time, we integrate airborne electromagnetic data, representing the subsurface, with subsidence data, mapped by interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR), to model deformation. By combining both data sets, we are able to solve for hydrologic and geophysical properties of the subsurface to effectively model the …
