Figure 5 shows a map of part of the Styx River catchment. The catchment has a paper pulp factory discharging polluted effluent into Lake A. As a consulting hydrogeologist you are commissioned to determine groundwater contaminant pathways from Lake A towards the Styx River and Lake B. The unconfined aquifer has an average saturated thickness of 40 m; an average hydraulic conductivity of 2.10-4 m/s and an effective porosity of 0.3. (a) Draw water-level contours at 5 m water intervals on the map (Figure 5) (b) Draw flow-path arrows based on the contours and answer the following questions: Indicate the main recharge area on the map. (c) (d) Is the Styx River gaining or losing? (e) (f) (g) Assuming uniform hydraulic conductivity, what proportion of ground-water recharge from Lake A reached the Styx River and what proportion reaches Lake B? Calculate the volumetric flux of water from Lake A to Lake B and the Styx River, respectively. Please state all your assumptions. How quick will contaminated water from Lake A reach Lake B and the Styx River, respectively. Please ignore the effects of dispersion and potential retardation.
