  • Death Valley Lower Carbonate Aquifer Monitoring Program- Wells Down Gradient of the Proposed Yucca Mountian Nuclear Waste Repository
    iU4 MOL.20080509.0010 DEATH VALLEY LOWER CARBONATE AQUIFER MONITORING PROGRAM- WELLS DOWN GRADIENT OF THE PROPOSED YUCCA MOUNTIAN NUCLEAR WASTE REPOSITORY U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT DE-FC28-06RW12368 YEAR ONE PROJECT REPORT PREPARED BY INYO COUNTY YUCCA MOUNTAIN REPOSITORY ASSESSMENT OFFICE Inyo County completed Year One of U.S. Department of Energy Cooperative Agreement No. DE-FC28-06RW12368. This report presents the results of research conducted within this cooperative agreement in the context of Inyo County's Yucca Mountain oversight program goals and objectives. The Hydrodynamics Group, LLC prepared this report for Inyo County Yucca Mountain repository Assessment Office. The overall goal of Inyo County's Yucca Mountain research program is the evaluation of far-field issues related to potential transport, by ground water, of radionuclide into Inyo County, including Death Valley, and the evaluation of a connection between the Lower Carbonate Aquifer (LCA) and the biosphere. Data collected within the cooperative agreement is included in interpretive illustrations and discussions of the results of our analysis. The central element's of this Cooperative Agreement program was the drilling of exploratory wells, analysis of geochemical data, geophysical surveys, and geological mapping of the Southern Funeral Mountain Range. The culmination of this research was two numerical ground water models of the Southern Funeral Mountain Range and Yucca Mountain region demonstrating the potential of a hydraulic connection between the LCA and the major springs in the Furnace Creek area of Death Valley. 1.0 Introduction The focus of the investigations by the Hydrodynamics Group for Inyo County is to assemble the best possible data on the Paleozoic Carbonate Aquifer, and then to use that data to assess the likelihood of contaminant transport from the planned Yucca Mountain high-level nuclear waste repository to the biosphere in Inyo County.

  • HRC-SYS) Has Been Developed by Categorizing Groundwater Research in Three Main Categories: 1) Societal Challenges, 2) Operational Actions and 3) Research Topics
    KINDRA Harmonised Terminology and Methodology for Groundwater Research Classification KINDRA DELIVERABLE D1.2 HARMONIZED TERMINOLOGY AND METHODOLOGY FOR GROUNDWATER RESEARCH CLASSIFICATION Summary: The present document details the final terminology and classification methodology on groundwater R&D results and activities with keywords derived from EU directives and 20 scientific journals publishing groundwater research with the highest impact factor. In addition, the selected keywords constituting the terminology, have been organized in a thesaurus following a hierarchical structure, with the aim of developing a harmonized methodology for classifying groundwater research. The Hydrogeological Research Classification System (HRC-SYS) has been developed by categorizing groundwater research in three main categories: 1) Societal Challenges, 2) Operational Actions and 3) Research Topics. Each of these three main categories includes 5 overarching sub-categories for an easy overview of the main research areas. These sub-categories are : A) for Societal Challenges: 1. Health, 2. Food, 3. Energy, 4. Climate-Environment-Resources, 5. Policy- Innovation-Society B) for Operational Actions: 1. Mapping, 2. Monitoring, 3. Modelling, 4. Water Supply, 5. Assessment & Management; and C) for Research Topics: 1. Biology, 2. Chemistry, 3. Geography, 4. Geology, 5. Physics & Mathematics. The complete merged list of about 200 keywords selected from the Water Framework and Groundwater directives and the selected high impact scientific journals has been organized in a tree hierarchy. The classification system maps the relation between the three main categories through a 3D approach, where along each axis the 5 overarching groups are indicated. This approach allows for a 2D representation for each of the Societal Challenges, wherein Operational Actions and Research Topics intersect in a 5x5 matrix.

  • Compare and Contrast the Water Environment Between Death Valley Pupfish Specie and Devil’S Hole Pupfish Specie
    Compare and Contrast the Water environment between Death Valley Pupfish Specie and Devil’s Hole Pupfish Specie By Roy Tianran Gao 1 Table of Contents Title page 1 Abstract 3 Introduction and Background 3 Water Temperature 4 Salinity 6 Water Level 7 Conservation 10 Conclusion 11 References 12 2 ABSTRACT The two types of pupfish (Cyprinodon) in Death Valley National Park are Death Valley pupfish and Devil’s Hole pupfish. Death Valley pupfish has been existed over 10,000 years and Devil’s Hole pupfish has been existed for over 20,000 years. Both of the pupfishes are endangered species. The average number of Death Valley pupfish has decreased by about 100 since 1990s, and the number of Devil’s Hole pupfish has decreased by 400 since 1995. Comparing the water level, water temperature and the water salinity between the two species of pupfish would help to define the living requirements and reason of decreasing population. The research toward the result is based on 7 journal articles, 4 websites, and 1 book. As the result shows, Death Valley Pupfish and Devil’s Hole Pupfish live in different water environments and functioned differently. Understanding the water environment of the two types of pupfishes will help people building new habitats for pupfishes and increase their population so that would be possible to avoid the extinction of pupfishes from the earth. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Pupfish is a small killifish in the Southwest of America. There are five pupfish species in Death Valley which are Armargosa pupfish, Saratoga Pupfish, Devil’s Hole pupfish, Death Valley pupfish, and Cotton ball Marsh pupfish (National Park Service, 2008).

  • Investigating the Effect of Recharge on Inland Freshwater Lens
    INVESTIGATING THE EFFECT OF RECHARGE ON INLAND FRESHWATER LENS FORMATION AND DEGRADATION IN NORTHERN KUWAIT by RACHEL ROSE ROTZ (Under the Direction of Adam Milewski) ABSTRACT Renewable freshwater resources in Kuwait exist as inland lenses and serve as an emergency resource in the northern Raudhatain and Umm Al-Aish basins. Recent studies suggest the inland lenses across the Arabian Peninsula are more numerous than believed. Specific geologic and hydrologic conditions are requisite for the formation and sustainability of these resources. Investigations into lens geometry as a function of recharge are needed to assess the amount of available freshwater. This study uses a physical model to examine differences between inland and oceanic island lens geometry (i.e. thickness, length), as well as the effect of recharge rate on lens formation and degradation. Results demonstrate inland lenses are thinner and longer than oceanic island lenses, are correlated to recharge rate, extend laterally, and degrade through time. The proper management and estimation of known reserves and development of new resources depend on understanding inland freshwater lens dynamics.

  • Desert Fish: Life on the Edge
    Desert Fish: by Linus Chen Life on the Edge Ash Meadows speckled dace Photo by John & Karen Hollingsworth/USFWS smallest at 3/4 inch (1.9 cm), is the only pupfish not to show aggressive territorial behavior.) During the year-round breeding season, the more colorful and deeper-bodied males of most pupfish taxa will pursue females into an area with fine sand, silt, and perhaps algae. After an elaborate courtship display by the male pupfish, the female deposits one or two eggs, which the male immediately fertilizes. Large female pupfish can lay about 25 eggs per day and may spawn with different males Fairbanks Springs, a small oasis in A few miles away, in Scruggs, Indian, each day. The eggs may be protected by the Nevada desert, resembles a large hot Marsh, and School springs, lives the the territorial behavior of males, but in tub from the bottom of which someone Warm Springs Amargosa pupfish (C. n. general there is no parental care of the forgot to scrub the algae.
