Subsidence Overview • Lowering of ground surface • Based on Terzaghi equation • Before pumping, geostatic load (pressure or stress) is balanced • Pumping reduces pore pressure; increases stress on ‘skeleton’ • “Stress” = Change in water level Reference: Poland (1984).

- 18. Conclusions • Use of the MODFLOW subsidence packages can have significant impacts on model predicted: – Head – Storage • 1D subsidence modeling may be more appropriate in locations where: – Available data are obtained from one borehole or location – Geologic heterogeneity of clay thickness or bedrock structure is poorly understood – Regional groundwater flow models are not available • 1D models assume that horizontal flow is insignificant compared to other storage and water budget components • 1D subsidence models over predict subsidence by approximately 20% • 3D groundwater flow modeling may be used to obtain subsidence results in one cell • Availability and quality of input data must be balanced with the confidence needs in the subsidence predictions 18

Notas do Editor
- One dimensional subsidence models are often used due to lack of available input data. While these are useful screening level models, integration of subsidence modeling into a three dimensional flow model should be considered, particularly if a flow model already exists. MODFLOW SUB-WT and SUB packages rely on the Terzaghi theory of one-dimensional consolidation to calculate subsidence. Although these calculations are based in the vertical dimension, use of these packages impacts the water balance and subsequent results of groundwater flow models. This presentation will provide details on the differences in model results between one and three dimensional subsidence modeling using the MODFLOW SUB-WT package.
