1DTempPro V2: New Features for Inferring Groundwater/Surface-Water Exchange.

Ground Water

Environmental Sciences Division, Characterization and Monitoring Branch, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 944 E. Harmon Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89119.

Published: May 2016

A new version of the computer program 1DTempPro extends the original code to include new capabilities for (1) automated parameter estimation, (2) layer heterogeneity, and (3) time-varying specific discharge. The code serves as an interface to the U.S. Geological Survey model VS2DH and supports analysis of vertical one-dimensional temperature profiles under saturated flow conditions to assess groundwater/surface-water exchange and estimate hydraulic conductivity for cases where hydraulic head is known.

Article Synopsis
  • Many water bodies worldwide are experiencing increasing nitrogen concentrations despite a decrease in agricultural nitrogen inputs.
  • This study combines long-term monitoring and molecular analysis to investigate factors influencing nitrogen transport and levels in the central Yangtze River Basin.
  • Findings indicate that the release of ammonium from sediments through cation exchange plays a key role in nitrogen levels, while the breakdown of organic nitrogen is less significant.

The disposal of coal fly ash (CFA) generated from coal-fired power stations has serious impact on the ecosystem, by converting large pieces of land to barren ash dams with the potential to contaminate groundwater, surface water, air and soil. The aim of this study was to clarify the potential of phytoremediation using (Thunb.) Less.

Riparian zones play a vital role in the river ecosystem. Solutes in vertical riparian zones are transported being by alternating hydraulic gradients between river water and groundwater, due to natural or human activities. This study investigates the impacts of porous sediments and alternating rate of surface water-groundwater on nitrogen removal in the riparian zone through experiments based on the field sampled.

An in-depth understanding of nitrate-contaminated surface water and groundwater quality and associated risks is important for groundwater management. Hydrochemical characteristics and driving forces of groundwater quality and non-carcinogenic risks of nitrate were revealed by the integrated approaches of self-organizing map analysis, spatial visualization by geography information system, entropy and irrigation water quality indices, and human health risk model. Groundwater samples were categorized into two clusters by SOM analysis.

Thorium (Th) and uranium (U) are important strategic resources in nuclear energy-based heavy industries such as energy and defense sectors that also generate significant radioactive waste in the process. The management of nuclear waste is therefore of paramount importance. Contamination of groundwater/surface water by Th/U is increasing at an alarming rate in certain geographical locations.
