Energy Transformation • 1 Caloria of heat = energy necessary to raise the temperature of one gram of pure water from 14.5 – 15.5oC • Latent Heat of vaporization Hv = 597.3 – 0.564T (Cal./g) • Latent Heat of condensation
Energy Transformation, Cont. • Latent heat of fusion – Hf – 1 g of ice at 0oC => ~80 cal of heat must be added to melt ice. Resulting water has same temperature. • Sublimation – Water passes directly from a solid state to a vapor state. Energy = Hf + Hv => 677 cal/g at 0oC. • Hv > 6Hf > 5 x amt. to warm water from 0oC -> 100oC
Hydrologic Equation • Inflow = outflow +/- Changes in storage • Equation is simple statement of mass conservation
Condensation • Condensation occurs when air mass can no longer hold all of its humidity. • Temperature drops => saturation humidity drops. • If absolute humidity remains constant => relative humidity rises. • Relative humidity reaches 100% => condensation => Dew point temperature.
Limited soil-moisture storage Cool, moist Cool, moist Warm, dry
Effective uniform depth (EUD) of precipitation • Arithmetic mean method – the rain gauge network is of uniform density. • Isohyetal line method. • Thiessen method. - construct polygons - weighted by polygon areas

low overland and return flows; high baseflow; strong water retaining (unconsolidated sand is thick). High overland and return flows; low baseflow; little water retaining (soils are thin).
Manning equation • V = 1.49 R2/3 S1/2 /n or R2/3 S1/2 /n • V – average velocity (L/T; ft/s or m/s). • R – hydraulic radius; or ratio of the cross-sectional area of flow in square feet to the wetted perimeter (L; ft or m). • S – energy gradient or slope of the water surface. • n – the Manning roughness coefficient.
Determining ground water recharge from baseflow (1) • Meyboom method (Seasonal recession method): utilizes stream hydrographs from two or more consecutive years. • Assumptions: the catchment area has no dams or other method of streamflow regulation; snowmelt contributes little to the runoff.
Determining ground water recharge from baseflow (2) • Rorabaugh method (Recession curve displacement method): utilizes stream hydrograph during one season.

Sediment Classification • Sediments are classified on basis of size of individual grains • Grain size distribution curve • Uniformity coefficient Cu = d60/d10 • d60 = grain size that is 60% finer by weight. • d10 = grain size that is 10% finer by weight. • Cu = 4 => well sorted; Cu > 6 => poorly sorted.
Specific Yield and Retention • Specific yield – Sy: ratio of volume of water that drains from a saturated rock owing to the attraction of gravity to the total volume of the rock. • Specific retention – Sr: ratio of the volume of water in a rock can retain against gravity drainage to the total volume of the rock. • n = Sy + Sr. • Sr increases with decreasing grain size.
Darcy’s Law • Q = -KA(dh/dl). • dh/dl = Hydraulic gradient. • dh = change in head between two points separated by small distance dl.
Darcy’s Law: Yes Laminar flow (Small R < 10) Flow lines Darcy’s Law: No Flow lines Turbulent flow (Large R)
Hydraulic conductivity • K = hydraulic conductivity (L/T). • K is also referred to as the coefficient of permeability. • K = -Q[A(dh/dl)] [ L3/T/[L2(L/L)] = L/T] • V = Q/A = -K(dh/dl) = specific discharge or Darcian velocity.
Intrinsic Permeability • Intrinsic permeability Ki = Cd2 (L2). • K = Ki(γ/μ) or K = Ki(ρg/ μ) • Petroleum industry 1 Darcy = unit of intrinsic permeability Ki • 1 darcy = 1 cP x 1 cm3/s / (1 atm/ 1 cm). cP – centipoise - 0.01 dyn s/cm2 atm – atmospheric pressure – 1.0132 x 1016 dyn/cm2 • 1 darcy = 9.87 x 10-9 cm2 ~ 10-8 cm2
Factors affecting permeability of sediments • Grain size increases permeability increases. • S. Dev. Of particle size increase poor sorting => permeability decrease. • Coarse samples show a greater decrease of permeability as S. Dev. Of particle size increases. • Unimodal samples (one dominant size) vs. bimodal samples.
Hazen method • Estimate hydraulic conductivity in sandy sediments. • K = C(d10)2. • K = hydraulic conductivity. • d10 = effective grain size (0.1 – 3.0 mm). • C = coefficient (see table on P 86).
Permeameters • Constant-head permeameter • Qt = -[KAt(ha-hb)]/L. • K = VL/Ath. • V = volume of water discharging in time. • L = length of the sample. • A = cross-sectional area of sample. • h = hydraulic head. • K = hydraulic conductivity

Aquifer • Aquifer – geologic unit that can store and transmit water at rates fast enough to supply amounts to wells. Usually, intrinsic permeability > 10-2 Darcy. • Confining layer – unit with little or no permeability … < 10-2 Darcy. aquifuge – absolutely impermeable unit. aquitard - a unit can store and transmit water slowly. Also called leaky confining layer. Raritan formation on Long Island. -- all these definitions are in a relative sense.
Transmissivity • The amount of water that can be transmitted horizontally through a unit width by the full saturated thickness of the aquifer under a hydraulic gradient of 1. • T = bK • T = transmissivity. • b = saturated thickness. • K = hydraulic conductivity. • Multilayer => T1 + T2 + … + Tn
Specific Storage • Specific storage Ss = amount of water per unit volume stored or expelled owing to compressibility of mineral skeleton and pore water per unit change in head (1/L). • Ss = ρwg(α+nβ) • α = compressibiliy of aquifer skeleton. • n = porosity. • β = compressibility of water.
Storativity of confined Unit S = b Ss • Ss = specific storage. • b = aquifer thickness. • All water released in confined, saturated aquifer comes from compressibility of mineral skeleton and pore water.
Storativity in Unconfined Unit • Changes in saturation associated with changes in storage. • Storage or release depends on specific yield Sy and specific storage Ss. • S = Sy + b Ss

Flow lines and flow nets • A flow line is an imaginary line that traces the path that a particle of ground water would flow as it flows through an aquifer. • A flow net is a network of equipotential lines and associated flow lines.
