The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, developed a model for used with MODFLOW-2005 and MODPATH5 to evaluate groundwater flow and advective transport under pre- and post-remediation conditions in the crystalline-rock aquifer in the vicinity of the Savage Municipal Water-Supply Well Superfund site Milford, New Hampshire. In addition, a previously developed model (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20045176 and https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr20121079) was used with MOC3D to evaluate the solute-transport of tetrachloroethylene (PCE). In 2010 PCE, a chlorinated volatile organic compound, was detected in groundwater from...

The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Air Force Civil Engineer Center, developed a numerical, steady-state regional model, using MODFLOW-2005, to evaluate current (2010) conditions and the potential effects of future (2030) groundwater withdrawals on water levels, streamflows, hydraulic gradients, and advective transport near the Joint Base Cape Cod (JBCC). Two numerical models were used in this analysis. An existing two-dimensional (one layer) model (termed the “coast model”), developed as part of a previous investigation of the potential effects of sea-level rise on the Cape Cod aquifer system (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20165058), simulates the position of the freshwater/saltwater interface by using...
ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
