Title Active Layer Groundwater Flow: The Interrelated Effects of Stratigraphy, Thaw, and Topography
Creator O'Connor, Michael T. Cardenas, M. Bayani Neilson, Bethany T. Nicholaides, Kindra D. Kling, George W.
Description The external drivers and internal controls of groundwater flow in the thawed “active layer” above permafrost are poorly constrained because they are dynamic and spatially variable. Understanding these controls is critical because groundwater can supply solutes such as dissolved organic matter to surface water bodies. We calculated steady‐state three‐dimensional suprapermafrost groundwater flow through the active layer using measurements of aquifer geometry, saturated thickness, and hydraulic...
