  1. 2D Laplace Eqn. --Homogeneous and isotropic aquifer without a sink/source term. --2D flow in a profile; (Unconfined aquifer with a water table boundary condition; recharge occurs as a result of the boundary condition.) General governing equation for steady-state, heterogeneous, anisotropic conditions

  8. South Fork Map of Long Island, N.Y. Charles Edward Jacob (1914-1970) Consultant to the Town of Southampton, NY December 1968

  9. h datum C.E. Jacob’s Conceptual Model of the South Fork of Long Island water table R groundwater divide ocean ocean b x = - L x = 0 x = L We can simulate this system assuming horizontal flow in a “confined” aquifer if we assume that T= Kb.

  10. at x =0 h(L) = 0 1D approximation used by C.E. Jacob R ocean ocean x = - L x = 0 x = L Boundary Conditions Governing Eqn.

  11. C.E. Jacob’s Model Governing Eqn. at x =0 Boundary conditions h(L) = 0 Analytical solution for 1D “confined” version of the problem h(x) = R (L2 – x2) / 2T Forward solution R = (2 T) h(x) / ( L2 – x2) Inverse solution for R

  12. Inverse solution for R R = (2 T) h(x) / ( L2 – x2) Solve for R with h(x) = h(0) = 20 ft. Inverse solution for T Rearrange eqn to solve for T, given value for R and h(0) = 20 ft. Observation well on the groundwater divide L

  13. Island Recharge Problem L y 2L ocean ocean well T= 10,000 ft2/day L = 12,000 ft x ocean

  14. Targets used in Model Calibration • Head measured in an observation well is known as a head target. • The simulated head at the node representing the observation well is compared with the measured head. • During model calibration, parameter values (e.g., R and T) are adjusted until the simulated head matches the observed value. • Model calibration solves the inverse problem.

  15. Island Recharge Problem L = 12,000 ft y 2L ocean Solve the forward problem: Given R= 0.00305 ft/d T= 10,000 ft2/day Solve for h at each nodal point ocean well x ocean
