Simulation of Three-Dimensional Pore-Pressure Distribution for Slope-Stability Analysis
Abstract: A 3D groundwater flow model was constructed using MINEDW [1] to simulate pore pressure at the Chuquicamata open pit mine slope in Chile. Three main factors required the implementation of a 3D model for the prediction of pore pressures: (1) discrete zones of recharge in the gravel zone lead to the non-uniform flow field; (2) the low-permeability west fault and shear zones maintain the ...

Wesleyan University Students Research Aquifer Recharge with Water Level Monitoring
Overview Wesleyan hydrology students used the Level TROLL 700 to monitor groundwater levels and perform slug tests to understand how climate change may impact aquifer recharge in the northeastern U.S. Challenge Students wanted to explore how climate change might impact groundwater levels in the Northeast, where precipitation is becoming less frequent but more intense. Increased rainfall ...

Effective Groundwater Monitoring Using Dedicated Pumping Tubes
This article describes a groundwater monitoring procedure that does not require decontamination of pumping equipment, eliminates the chance of cross contamination between wells, and uses a surface pump. Two surface pumps are described, one for water level depths less than 25 feet and one for water level depths greater than 25 feet. Install Dedicated Pumping Tubes A dedicated pumping tube ...
