Abstract High quality coastal aquifer systems provide vast quantities of potable groundwater for millions people worldwide. Managing this setting has economic and environmental consequences. Specific knowledge the dynamic relationship between fresh terrestrial discharging to ocean seawater intrusion is necessary. We present multi- disciplinary research that assesses relationships throughflow intrusion. This combines numerical simulation, geophysics, analysis more than 30 years data from a...
Abstract Population growth and changing climate continue to impact on the availability of natural resources. Urbanization vulnerable coastal margins can place serious demands shallow groundwater. Here, groundwater management requires definition hydrogeology, particularly seawater interface. Electrical resistivity imaging (ERI) appears be ideally suited for this purpose. We investigate challenges drivers successful electrical with field synthetic experiments. Two decades intrusion monitoring...
Coastal artillery batteries were a key part of Australia's defenses during the Second World War. One such battery (the Leighton Battery) was located at Buckland Hill near port Fremantle in Western Australia. In late 1980s abandoned and gun positions possibly demolished filled with dirt area vegetated. We trialed 3D ERI, near-surface conductivity, magnetics, GPR, seismic methods to identify location/existence two buried mount positions. All tried successful some extent, but conductivity most...
