Estimating Exchange Fluxes Between Surface Water and Groundwater Using Stable Isotope and Radon Models

Posted by  Jason Lillywhite

I'm excited to share a recent paper by Lloyd Townley and Jeffrey Turner, which showcases the use of GoldSim software in modeling surface and groundwater interactions. The research introduces the Lake Water Balance Calculator (LWBC), a tool developed using GoldSim, to estimate groundwater-surface water flow rates. This tool leverages transient balance solutions for radon, coupled with volumetric flow equations, and presents results from multiple case studies.
