Get high quality samples with your drive-point Piezometer
The results from short-term and long-term groundwater monitoring studies have shown that samples taken from Direct Push wells are comparable in quality to those obtained from conventional monitoring wells (ITRC, 2006). Solinst offers the Model 615 Drive-Point Piezometers that can be driven into suitable soils for groundwater sampling up to 20 to 25 ft. (6 – 7.5 m). High quality samples ...

Dam Monitoring During Construction
Intelligent Geo Data Logger Reads Vibrating Wire Sensors for Dam Monitoring A hydroelectric dam under construction in Serbia required dam monitoring of several environmental and structural properties to guarantee long-term strength and stability. Therefore the dam’s construction engineers put forth a proposal for a large number of geotechnical sensors to be installed and used during ...

Hydraulic and Thermal Response of Groundwater–Surface Water Exchange to Flooding in Experimental Aquifer
Summary The effects of flooding on interactions between streams and shallow aquifers are poorly studied due to the unpredictable nature of flooding events. This study examines groundwater-surface water interactions in a constructed experimental meander over several simulated flood events using hydrologic and thermal monitoring. Detailed steady-state hydraulic head measurements were taken of the ...

Identification of groundwater contamination zone around a reclaimed landfill using carbon isotopes
Chemical and isotopic analyses of groundwater from piezometers localized around a reclaimed landfill were performed in order to identify the boundaries of groundwater contamination zone. Spatial distribution of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) concentration and stable carbon isotopes in the groundwater was used to distinguish the piezometers localized within the contaminated aquifer. Background ...

Multilevel Groundwater Assessment of Confining Unit in a Bedrock Sequence near Sarnia, Ontario
Untitled Document INTRODUCTION Two sites in southern Ontario were studied through instrumentation of boreholes with Waterloo Multilevel Monitoring Systems. These sites are located approximately 7 km (4.3 miles) apart and lie between Sarnia to the northwest, and Petrolia to the east in lambton County, Ontario, Canada (figure 1). Multilevel monitoring devices were installed to ...
