Document Title. Groundwater Flow and thermal Transport Modeling to Support a Preferred Conceptual Model for the Large Hydraulic Gradient North of Yucca Mountain ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is the principal investigator (PI) for the task Groundwater Flow and Thermal Modeling to Support a Preferred Conceptual Model for the Large Hydraulic Gradient North of Yucca Mountain, ORD- FY04-018, under the DOE Cooperative Agreement DE-FC28-04RW12232,. The PI and project staff will evaluate a postulated conceptual hydrogeologic configuration of the large hydraulic gradient (LHG) north of Yucca Mountain. There are multiple conceptual models of the hydrogeology that may cause hydraulic heads similar to the (LHG). There are sufficient uncertainties in the hydrologic interpretation and range in hydraulic properties, such that a certain interpretation of the LHG is not indicated based solely on water level evidence. By combining groundwater temperature information with the water level information, a more rigorous numerical interpretation is formulated of the LHG.
