A Comparison Of Sequential And Integrated Data Fusion For Estimating Hydrologic Properties During A Synthetic Gpr Monitored Infiltration Event, Guy Sicilia Jr Aug 2008

A Comparison Of Sequential And Integrated Data Fusion For Estimating Hydrologic Properties During A Synthetic Gpr Monitored Infiltration Event, Guy Sicilia Jr

All Theses

Constraining parameters that govern variably saturated flow is important for applications ranging from quantifying water availability for ecosystems to constraining recharge rates and contaminant fluxes to groundwater. In this study I explore the effectiveness of sequential versus integrated data fusion for estimating unsaturated flow parameters using ground penetrating radar (GPR) data. In Sequential Data Fusion (SDF), geophysical imaging is used to create a map of the geophysical properties of the subsurface. These properties are then transformed to hydrologic properties that can be used to constrain an independent hydrologic inverse problem. In contrast, Integrated Data Fusion (IDF) uses the geophysical data …


Structural Geology And Aquifer Characterization Of Glassy Mountain, South Carolina Piedmont, Cameron M. Warlick May 2004

Structural Geology And Aquifer Characterization Of Glassy Mountain, South Carolina Piedmont, Cameron M. Warlick

All Dissertations

Lithologies and structures of the Inner Piedmont geological province were mapped in detail in the vicinity of a major, new residential development on Glassy Mountain, which is located north of Greenville, South Carolina, within the Saluda 7.5-minute quadrangle. Three principal lithostratigraphic units are recognized within the study area: the Henderson Gneiss, Upper Mill Spring unit, and Poor Mountain Formation. The contact between the Henderson Gneiss and the overlying Upper Mill Spring-Poor Mountain sequence is the Seneca Thrust. The contact between the Upper Mill Spring unit and the overlying Poor Mountain Formation is also a thrust fault. Fold vergence and thrust …
