Detection of Fresh Ground Water and a Contaminant Plume Beneath Red Brook Harbor, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, 2000


Book Description

... Study of a landfill plume eminating from the Massachusetts Military Reservation on Cape Cod which flows to Red Brook Harbor in the Cataumet section of the town of Bourne; the study investigated the characteristics of the plume as it journeys along the water table to the harbor; it was also an attempt to determine if fresh groundwater is present at the bottom of the harbor and how far freshwater extends off shore; lastly TCE and PCE levels were studied beneath the harbor to see how far offshore contaminants are present ...

Simulation of Advective Flow Under Steady-state and Transient Recharge Conditions, Camp Edwards, Massachusetts Military Reservation, Cape Cod, Massachusetts


Book Description

... Describes and documents USGS groundwater flow modeling activities in support of the US Army National Guard investigations; these models were used to (1) improve understanding of the hydrologic system, (2) simulate advective transport of contaminants, (3) delineate recharge areas to municipal wells, and (4) evaluate how model discretization and time-varying recharge affect simulation results ...
