For many islands around the globe freshwater lenses (FWLs) are an important source of drinking water. Therefore, it is to be able estimate amount potable water below island. This study provides a new approach on estimating FWL volumes from islands' shape using circularity parameter. FWLs having several shapes, either shapes real or idealized were modeled numerical steady-state and Ghyben-Herzberg relation. Results then compared in order possible various with shapes. Approximate lower upper...
Freshwater lenses (FWLs) are an important source of drinking water on many islands in the world. Thus, it is to study their volumes. Many case studies have already been carried out real world approximate FWL volume respective islands. Also, generic FWLs exist that consider idealised island shapes such as circular or strip However, authors’ knowledge there no so far describes general relationship between island’s shape and freshwater its lens. Here we show a these two...
