A 2-D, Variable-Density Numerical Model of Subsurface Fluid Flow through the Edwards Aquifer, New Braunfels, TX: Mechanisms Inhibiting Flow across the Freshwater/Saline-Water Interface

The Edwards aquifer in south-central Texas, U.S., composed of faulted carbonate bedrock, contains freshwater and saline water. In aquifers that are used as a source of drinking water and that contain fresh and saline waters, saline-water intrusion can result in degradation of water quality. Yet, in...
