Characterization of colloids found in various groundwater environments in central and southern Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1989)
Colloid concentration and composition were determined and compared for twenty-three groundwater samples collected in central and southern Nevada.
A water cost study in Las Vegas Valley, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1967)
Energy costs and fixed costs for two major producers of groundwater in the Las Vegas Valley were analyzed to determine the factors which influence the unit cost.
Inter-Code Comparison of Variably Saturated Fluid Flow and Prediction of Percolation through a Tailings Impoundment in Southeast Nevada, USA.
(2016)
Hypothetical infiltration columns were simulated to evaluate the performance of 6 different modeling codes (HYDRUS 1D, HYDRUS 2D/3D, HELP, SV FLUX, UNSAT-H, and VS2D) at simulating near ground surface water balance processes ...
Tidal fluctuations and ground-water dynamics in atoll island aquifers
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1984)
A computer model capable of simulating two-dimensional, vertical, saturated, and unsaturated flow was modified and applied to Enjebi’s groundwater system. Results indicated that for a small island aquifer with an underlying ...
Geochemical and isotopic evidence for hydrologic processes at Owens Lake, California
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1995)
Dust mitigation at Owens Dry Lake requires an understanding of the hydrologic system because one proposed remedial strategy is flooding dust-producing areas with groundwater pumped from deep aquifers. This study uses ...
Development of a quasi three-dimensional groundwater model for a portion of the Nevada Test Site
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1978)
An empirical correction matrix has been devised that will partially adjust a two-dimensional model for flow in the third dimension. The correction matrix has been applied to the groundwater system from Pahute Mesa to Yucca ...
Sources of nitrate in northwestern Nevada groundwater, 1985-2014 of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Hydrogeology
(2015)
Groundwater data from across northwestern Nevada was compiled to determine variables that affect nitrate concentrations in the region. Variables used in this study that may influence increased nitrate concentrations include ...
Controls on ground water chemistry in central and western Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1982)
Geochemical evolution of waters from the semi-arid western Great Basin and parts of the Sierra Nevada was analyzed using common techniques for computation of ionic speciation, classification, R-mode factor analysis and an ...
Hydrogeologic study of groundwater-surface water interactions at Topaz Lake, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1981)
A hydrologic study was conducted to investigate groundwater-lakewater interactions around Topaz Lake, Nevada, where an alluvial aquifer is hydraulically connected with the off-stream storage reservoir. Basic objectives of ...
Analysis of techniques for estimating potential recharge and shallow unsaturated zone water balance near Yucca Mountain, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1990)
Partitioning of precipitation was examined over two years to evaluate moisture potentially available for groundwater recharge at Yucca Mountain. Monitoring soil moisture movement was accomplished using Time Domain Reflectometry.
