Aquifer exploitation potential at a riverbank filtration site based on spatiotemporal variations in riverbed hydraulic conductivity
Study region: A riparian zone within the Songhua River Basin in Northeast China, characterized by a continental monsoon semi-humid climate. Study focus: River infiltration is an important part of groundwater recharge at riverbank filtration (RBF) sites and largely depends on the riverbed hydraulic conductivity (RHC). The influence of river scouring and deposition on RHC is not completely clear, resulting in calculation inaccuracies in the rate of river water infiltration to the aquifer. Thus, the study determined the relationship between RHC and sediment particle size using stepwise regression analysis and a genetic algorithm. A hydrodynamic and sediment transport model (Delft3D) was used to simulate the spatial distribution of sediment particle sizes. A numerical groundwater flow model was also established, using Visual MODFLOW, in which the river boundary was generalized into a third type of boundary condition, and RHC zoning was performed to improve the accuracy of the simulation. New hydrological insights: The findings showed that accurate prediction of RHC is essential for the assessment of groundwater resources in riparian zones. This is crucial for RBF managers, as they will be able to adjust the pumping rate according to the hydrological conditions of the river to either access more water resources in wet years or avoid a series of ecological and geological problems caused by excessive groundwater exploitation in dry years.
