Edward’s Aquifer Ground-water Flow Model

Texas Ground Water 2004November 19, 2004George B. Ozuna

Edwards Aquifer Model

• In cooperation with: Edwards Aquifer Authority Department of Defense USGS

• Richard Lindgren, USGS• Sue Horvorka and Alan Dutton, BEG• Scott Painter, SwRI• Steve Worthington, Consultant

• Uniform ¼-mi grid • 370 rows; 700 columns; 259,000 cells• One layer• Grid alignment:

Major faults and flow near Comal and San Marcos Springs

Structure

• Aquifer top elevation• Aquifer bottom elevation• Faults

Provided by BEG – Sue Horvorka

Faults

• Simulated using Horizontal Flow Barrier Package

• Model inputs: fault location hydraulic characteristic (C)

o hydraulic conductance termo Assumption: hydraulic characteristic (C) is a

function of fault displacement inversely proportional

Steady-State Calibration

• Calibration period: 1939 – 1946• Pre-1950’s drought, minimal irrigation

development• Near-normal precipitation• San Antonio precipitation: normal 1961-90 30.98 in/yr average 1939-46 30.47 in/yr

Steady-State Target Wells

144 wells

Steady-State Calibration

Transient Calibration

• Calibration period: 1947 – 2000• Calibration targets:

Long-term record wellso County Index wellso match hydrographs

Selected time periodso periods of above- and below-normal precipitationo match hydraulic heads for a set of wells

Transient Calibration

• Selected time periods Below-normal precipitation

o 1952-57 May thru November 1956 175 wells

Above-normal precipitationo 1973-77

November 1974 thru July 1975 172 wells
