    Description / Table of Contents: This book presents an overview of techniques that are available to characterize sedimentary aquifers. Groundwater flow and solute transport are strongly affected by aquifer heterogeneity. Improved aquifer characterization can allow for a better conceptual understanding of aquifer systems, which can lead to more accurate groundwater models and successful water management solutions, such as contaminant remediation and managed aquifer recharge systems. This book has an applied perspective in that it considers the practicality of techniques for actual groundwater management and development projects in terms of costs, technical resources and expertise required, and investigation time. A discussion of the geological causes, types, and scales of aquifer heterogeneity is first provided. Aquifer characterization methods are then discussed, followed by chapters on data upscaling, groundwater modelling, and geostatistics. This book is a must for every practitioner, graduate student, or researcher dealing with aquifer characterization.

    Notes: A consistent pattern for the silica sources, depositional environments and timing of chertification was observed in a diverse suite of five Late Mesozoic and Middle Palaeozoic carbonate sequences; the (1) Upper Greensand (Cretaceous) and (2) Portland Limestone (Jurassic) of southern England, (3) the Ramp Creek Formation (Mississippian) of southern Indiana, and the (4) lower Helderberg Group (Devonian) and (5) Onondaga Limestone (Devonian) of New York State. Nodular chert formation in all five limestone sequences occurred in sediments that were largely uncemented. Ghosts of pre-chertification carbonate cements are present in some chert nodules but are volumetrically minor. In every limestone sequence except the Upper Greensand, chertification occurred after burial to a depth sufficient for intergranular pressure solution and mechanical grain deformation of carbonate sand.Nodular chert is most abundant in subtidal, normal marine wackestones and mudstones that were deposited at or below fair-weather wave base, and is absent or rare in supratidal, intertidal and high-energy subtidal limestones and dolomites. An intraformational sponge spicule silica source for chert nodules is suggested by direct evidence, such as calcitized sponge spicules in the host limestone, and circumstantial evidence, such as ghosts of sponge spicules in chert nodules and a correlation of chert abundance with depositional environment. Most molds of siliceous sponge spicules were apparently obliterated by post-chertification intergranular compaction. We propose that these general trends for the depositional environments, silica sources and timing of chertification are representative of most Mesozoic to Middle Palaeozoic platform limestones.

    Notes: Nodular cherts can provide a window on the original sediment composition, diagenetic history and biota of their host rock because of their low susceptibility to further diagenetic alteration. The majority of Phanerozoic cherts formed by the intraformational redistribution of biogenic silica, particularly siliceous sponge spicules, radiolarian tests and diatom frustules. In the absence of a biogenic silica source, Precambrian cherts necessarily had to have had a different origin than Phanerozoic cherts. The Mesoproterozoic Belt Supergroup in Glacier National Park contains a variety of chert types, including silicified oolites and stromatolites, which have similar microtextures and paragenesis to Phanerozoic cherts, despite their different origins. Much of the silicification in the Belt Supergroup occurred after the onset of intergranular compaction, but before the main episode of dolomitization. The Belt Supergroup cherts probably had an opal-CT precursor, in the same manner as many Phanerozoic cherts. Although it is likely that Precambrian seas had higher silica concentrations than at present because of the absence of silica-secreting organisms, no evidence was observed that would suggest that high dissolved silica concentrations in the Belt sea had a significant widespread effect on silicification. The rarity of microfossils in Belt Supergroup cherts indicates that early silicification, if it occurred, was exceptional and restricted to localized environments. The similarity of microtextures in cherts of different ages is evidence that the silicification process is largely controlled by host carbonate composition and dissolved silica concentration during diagenesis, regardless of the source of silica.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Depuis 1988, dans le sud-ouest de la Floride, l'injection dans des puits profonds a été pratiquée pour stocker des déchets liquides domestiques. Ces déchets liquides sont injectés dans une zone à transmissivité extrêmement forte d'une dolomie fracturée de la formation Oldsmar de l'Éocène inférieur, appartenant au système aquifère de Floride ; cette zone est désignée habituellement sous le nom de zone de Boulder. Les données obtenues au cours de la foration et des essais opérationnels sur les puits d'injection dans le sud-ouest de la Floride fournit des informations sur la nature de la zone d'injection et sur les couches supérieures qui la rendent captive. La localisation des zones à forte transmissivité susceptibles de recevoir de grandes quantités d'eaux usées est variable verticalement et horizontalement et ne peut pas être prédite avec certitude. Par exemple, un intervalle à forte transmissivitéépais de 40,9 m dans un puits d'injection est absent dans un puits foréà seulement 85,4 m. Une migration vers l'amont de fluides injectés à faible densité s'est produite, mais les liquides injectés n'ont été détectés dans aucun des sites de contrôle, comme cela s'est produit dans les sites de puits d'injection le long des côtes de Floride sud-est, centre-ouest et centre-est. Le confinement primaire des liquides injectés, c'est-à-dire les niveaux les plus profonds de confinement effectif, consiste en des niveaux non fracturés de dolomie à faible perméabilité dans la formation Oldsmar, dont la localisation est elle aussi variable latéralement et verticalement. L'origine et le contrôle de la distribution des fractures dans la formation Oldsmar sont mal connues.
    Abstract: Resumen La inyección en pozos profundos se está usando desde 1988 para el vertido de residuos líquidos municipales en el sudoeste de Florida. Los residuos líquidos se inyectan en una zona altamente transmisiva correspondiente a una dolomita fracturada de la Formación Oldsmar, que data de principios del Eoceno, en una zona comúnmente denominada Boulder. Los datos recogidos durante la perforación y la operación de estos pozos proporcionan información sobre la naturaleza de la zona de inyección y de las capas confinantes suprayacentes. La localización de las zonas de alta transmisividad que potencialmente pueden aceptar grandes cantidades de residuos líquidos varía horizontal y verticalmente, por lo que su localización supone una gran incertidumbre. Como ejemplo, un intervalo altamente transmisivo de 40.9 m de espesor presente en un pozo de inyección no aparecía en otro pozo situado a tan sólo 85.4 m. En algunos puntos se ha detectado migración de los fluidos inyectados de baja densidad hacia la superficie, pero en cambio los líquidos no aparecen en ningún pozo de control profundo, cosa que sí ha sucedido en otros pozos de inyección a lo largo de las costas sudeste, oeste-central y este-central de Florida. La contención primaria de los líquidos inyectados (es decir, las capas más profundas que producen un confinamiento efectivo) consisten en capas de dolomita no fracturada de baja permeabilidad de la Formación Oldsmar, también variables lateral y verticalmente. El origen y la distribución de las fracturas en la Formación Oldsmar no son bien conocidos.
    Notes: Abstract  Deep-well injection has been used to dispose of municipal liquid wastes in southwestern Florida since 1988. The liquid wastes are injected into an extremely high-transmissivity zone of fractured dolomite in the Early Eocene Oldsmar Formation of the Floridan aquifer system; this zone is commonly referred to as the Boulder Zone. Data collected during the drilling and operational testing of southwestern Florida injection wells provide insights into the nature of the injection zone and overlying confining beds. The location of high-transmissivity zones that are capable of accepting large quantities of waste water is vertically and horizontally variable and cannot be predicted with certainty. A 40.9-m thick high-permeability interval in one injection well, for example, was absent in a well drilled only 85.4 m away. Some upward migration of low-density injected fluids has occurred, but at no site were the injected liquids detected in deep monitor wells, such as occurred at injection-well sites along the coasts of southeastern, west-central, and east-central Florida. The primary confinement of the injected liquids (i.e., deepest effective confining beds) consists of unfractured beds of low-permeability dolomite within the Oldsmar Formation, whose locations are also laterally and vertically variable. The origin and controls of the distribution of fractures in the Oldsmar Formation are poorly understood.
