The forty papers in this book explore the state of sustainable groundwater management in a wide range of countries and cultures, climates, and geologies. They are organized in topic areas covering flow, chemical water quality, biological water quality, remediation, engineering, and socio-economics. An introductory section presents a range of integrated regional-scale studies. This volume will interest groundwater specialists in industry and research, and will provide insight for other urban specialists, including planners.

The computer model described in this report, called VST2D, was designed to simulate coupled water-heat-solute transport in heterogeneous, anisotropic, two-dimensional, ground-water systems with variable fluid density. The VST2D model was verified against analytic and numerical solutions for problems of water transport under isohaline and isothermal conditions, heat transport under isobaric and isohaline conditions, and solute transport under isobaric and isothermal conditions. The code for this model is available for downloading over the Internet from a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) software repository.
