Simulation of Regional Ground-Water Flow in the Suwannee River Basin, Northern Florida and Southern Georgia

Abstract: Vertical coordinate information is referenced to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD of 1929); horizontal coordinate information is referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83).

“…A similar case is for the Floridan Aquifer at Valdosta, where it is recharged by surface waters [27], which are then partly redirected towards Statenville-Jennings. The transmissivity of the Upper Floridan Aquifer in this area has values of over 900 m 2 /day (in the western parts of Echols and Hamilton counties, which are surrounded by areas with much lower transmissivities of around 140-185 m 2 /day) [28], and this may also explain the efficient groundwater-streamwater export of the tidal signals. Semidiurnal oscillations in a streamwater level were also studied for another river, Wybong, in Australia/New South Wales-this river belongs to the Hunter River basin.…”

“…The similarities in groundwater levels and stream stages indicate hydraulic connection and water exchange between the surficial aquifer system and surface water. The water table in the surficial aquifer system parallels topography in a subdued manner and generally lies within 10 ft of land surface (Planert, 2007). Steep gradients occur between streams and ridges or hills; gentle gradients exist in broad, flat interstream areas and under broad topographic highs.…”

“…The lower reaches of these tributaries are incised into the highly transmissive Upper Floridan aquifer, as is most of the Suwannee River (the reach downstream from White Springs), and substantial interactions occur between the aquifer and these river reaches (and the numerous springs occurring along these reaches). To support analyses of the groundwater system in the Suwannee River Basin, a numerical model was constructed using the MODFLOW code that simulates groundwater flow in the Upper Floridan aquifer and the interaction of the river system with the aquifer [11]. The Suwannee River Basin Model (SRBM) simulates a single aquifer layer under steady-state conditions approximate to September 1990 [11].…”

The Suwannee River Basin Model (SRBM) simulates a single aquifer layer under steady-state conditions approximate to September 1990 [11]. Data for calibration came from September 1990 measurements of groundwater levels, discharge at gaging stations for the Suwannee, Alapaha, northern Withlacoochee, Santa Fe, Fenholloway, Aucilla, Econfina, and Steinhatchee Rivers, and spring flows at seven first-magnitude springs [11] (Figure 2).…”
