Example of water level data logger use - case study
Geo Kamp Limited is pleased to present a typical hydrogeologic project using Heron Water Level Data Loggers (referred to as the dipperLog). The accompanying hydrographs represent the data collected for a Test Well located near Lake Simcoe (north of Toronto) in 2010. It was difficult to coordinate the schedule of the water well contractor due to inclement weather (bitterly cold) and the project ...

Tidal influences on unconfined water levels in wells.
Tidal effects have the potential to measurably affect water level measurements and the estimation of groundwater flow direction and gradient. This has significant implications for the prediction and monitoring of contaminant plumes in coastal areas. Studies were conducted at two near-coastal sites in San Diego County, California, to evaluate the impact of tidal variability on the interpretation ...

Fold geometry model of Coyote hills segment of Puente hills blind-thrust system applied to interpretation of long-term water level data
Recent work by others along the Coyote Hills segment of the Puente Hills blind-thrust system has imaged the near-surface structural features generated by activity of that intrabasin fault. Published shallow seismic profiles near the south flank of the Coyote Hills indicate the blindthrust system is expressed by south-facing folding of Quaternary terrestrial sediments underlying the hills. ...

World’s 37 Most Water-Stressed Countries
Providing stable freshwater supplies is a priority for every country in the world. Yet stable supplies are increasingly hard to come by in many countries, as water-related risks increase. For example, recent droughts threatened GDP growth in the United States. Monsoon floods killed hundreds and displaced thousands in India. Increased competition for water may impact energy production in China, ...

From 6 Belgian knights to groundwater monitoring - Case Study
Project From 6 Belgian knights to groundwater monitoring. Opdrachtgever Affligem Brewery Land Belgium Background to installing the monitoring network Pieter Careel, Production Support Coordinator, at Affligem Brewery: "The government is very careful about issuing environmental permits for pumping groundwater. We must be able to demonstrate that we use the water for high technology ...

How Can Artificial Intelligence Tackle the Water Crisis?
When we talk about the water crisis, it’s easy to imagine that these problems are only happening a long way off and only in places that see prolonged periods of drought and very little annual precipitation. This is perhaps especially true for those who call Great Britain home, an island famed for its wet weather and damp climate. The water crisis surely couldn’t rear its ugly head on ...

Westbay System Reduces Construction Costs by 65% - Case study
CHALLENGE OCWD had determined that information on the piezometric level and water quality of each aquifer layer was required to optimize management of the recharge, storage, and recovery of groundwater. SOLUTION A cost analysis indicated that for 10 zones through a depth of 1,500 ft, the Westbay System instrumentation would result in a total cost 55% to 65% lower than that for clustered wells or ...

The Long Island Lie: Emerging Contaminants Tainting Drinking Water and the Company with a Solution
When Grumman partnered with the U.S. Navy to establish a manufacturing, research and testing facility in Bethpage, N.Y. nobody would have anticipated the challenges that would plague the greater Long Island community some eighty-years later. Established on a sprawling 600-acre plot in the late 1930s, the facility aided in providing the United States military with means to defend the freedom of ...
