    Notes: Abstract. In this paper we describe the design and implementation of ParSets, a means of exploiting parallelism in the SHORE OODBMS. We used ParSets to parallelize the graph traversal portion of the OO7 OODBMS benchmark, and present speedup and scaleup results from parallel SHORE running these traversals on a cluster of commodity workstations connected by a standard ethernet. For some OO7 traversals, SHORE achieved excellent speedup and scaleup; for other OO7 traversals, only marginal speedup and scaleup occurred. The characteristics of these traversals shed light on when the ParSet approach to parallelism can and cannot be applied to speed up an application.

    Notes: The funnel-and-gate ground water remediation technology (Starr and Cherry 1994) has received increased attention and application as an in situ alternative to the typical pump-and-treat system. Understanding the effects of heterogeneity on system performance can mean the difference between a successful remediation project and one that fails to meet its cleanup goals.In an attempt to characterize and quantify the effects of heterogeneity on funnel-and-gate system performance, a numerical modeling study of 15 simulated heterogeneous flow domains was conducted. Each realization was tested to determine if the predicted capture width met the capture width expected for a homogeneous flow domain with the same hulk properties. This study revealed that the capture width of the funnel-and-gate system varied significantly with the level of heterogeneity of the aquifer.Two possible remedies were investigated for bringing systems with less than acceptable capture widths to acceptable levels of performance. First, it was determined that enlarging the funnel and gate via a factor of safety applied to the design capture width could compensate for the capture width variation in the heterogeneous flow domains. In addition, it was shown that the use of a pumping well downstream of the funnel and gate could compensate for the effects of aquifer heterogeneity on the funnel-and-gate capture width. However, if a pumping well is placed downstream of the funnel and gate to control the hydraulic gradient through the gate, consideration should be given to the gate residence time in relation to the geochemistry of the contaminant removal or destruction process in the gate.

    Notes: The funnel and gate remediation concept (Star and Cherry 1993) represents a promising, yet relatively under-developed, technology for the passive control and in situ remediation of contaminated ground water. Effective design and implementation of such a system may, however, prove difficult under conditions of large or unpredictable variations in contaminant migration or ground water flow.Numerical modeling of two-dimensional ground water flow has been used to predict the hydraulic performance of passive, straight, or winged funnel and gate configurations over a range of hydrogeologic and ambient ground water flow conditions. The results of these analyses were used to construct generic correlation diagrams relating upstream capture zone or gale through put to the barrier, gale, and aquifer characteristics. These diagrams serve as useful screening tools to (1) quantitatively estimate the capture zone of pre-determined funnel and gale configurations, or (2) develop preliminary funnel and gale designs that will yield a desired capture zone, independent of aquifer characteristics.

    Notes: A technique based on numerical ground-water flow modeling and unconstrained nonlinear optimization has been developed to provide guidance for protecting municipal ground-water supplies from contamination through capture zone management. The technique involves conventional finite-difference ground-water flow modeling and numerical flowpath/travel time calculation coupled with nonlinear mathematical programming. The objective of the technique is to specify pumping rates for wells in a wellfield such that the configuration of capture zones in relation to existing potential sources of contamination minimizes the risk of contamination while maintaining the required total water output from the wellfield. An important feature of the technique is its ability to incorporate realistic boundary conditions, complicated aquifer configurations, and spatially varying aquifer properties to whatever degree site-specific data are available. Also, the technique is implemented on a personal computer. This approach to ground-water supply protection enhances conventional wellhead protection area delineation because a greater level of protection can be achieved if potential contaminant sources are not even included in capture zones, rather than attempting to reduce the threat of those sources. The effectiveness of the technique was verified through application to a hypothetical ground-water system. Practical aspects were demonstrated with an application in Pékin, Illinois. These efforts demonstrate the utility of an innovative modeling technique in ground-water quality protection.

    Notes: A simple to understand and easy to implement numerical technique, based on reverse calculation of ground -water flow paths, is applied to delineation of time-related capture zones around water-supply wells. The areal extent of a t-year capture zone in a two-dimensional regional flow domain is approximated by a large set of reverse pathlines all with t-year travel times. The numerical approach is suitable for calculation of time-related capture zones in steady, nonuniform flow with inhomogeneous, anisotropic aquifer conditions. The example applications show the sensitivity of this technique to the influence of multiple wells in a block inhomogeneous flow regime.

    Notes: : There is considerable misconception about the dangers of opening to a recreating public in great need of additional open areas. A systematic procedure for identifying the factors essential to the selectio, planning, and management of reservoirs for recreation is described. A detailed case study conducted by an interdisciplinary project team is presented to demonstrate the feasibility fo maintaining storage levels in recreation-conductive high country reseroirs without unduly injuring downstram water users. The idea is to trade water with reservoirs having less recreation potential. The optimal means of doing this is found via a river basin simulation model with quasi-optimizing capability. Results of the case study show that this strategy is indeed feasible. Applicable to other areas may require analysis of tradeoffs if at least some damage to downstream users is unavoidable.

    Description: Tholeiitic basalts have been recovered from drill sites in different locations on the Ontong Java Plateau (OJP) and are remarkably homogeneous across this large igneous province. The most abundant basalt type is represented by the Kwaimbaita Formation on Malaita in the Solomon Islands, where it is capped by the isotopically distinct and slightly more incompatible-element-enriched basalt of the Singgalo Formation. Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 192 drilled five sites on the OJP, four of which penetrated basement lava successions. All basalt recovered during Leg 192 is chemically and isotopically indistinguishable from Kwaimbaita-type lavas. Site 1184 of ODP Leg 192 is situated on the eastern salient of the OJP, and is unique because the recovered volcaniclastic succession contains the first conclusive evidence for emergence of part of the OJP above sea level. Within this succession are clasts of basaltic material. We report the major element-, trace-element and isotopic compositions of 14 moderately to highly altered basalt clasts. On the basis of incompatible-element concentrations, specifically high field strength elements (HFSE) and rare earth elements (REE), four groups of clasts are defined. Group 1 clasts are similar to basalt from the Kwaimbaita Formation. Group 2 clasts show variable composition, but the heavy rare earth element (HREE) concentrations are similar to those of basalts from the Kwaimbaita Formation. Group 3 clasts have compositions similar to the high-MgO Kroenke-type basalt recovered during ODP Leg 192. Group 4 clasts are more evolved than the Kwaimbaita or Singgalo lavas, and contain deep negative Eu and Sr anomalies on primitive-mantle (PM)-normalized diagrams, as well as high concentrations of Nb, Ta and Th. Group 4 clasts also show a large fractionation of Nb from La and have (Nb/La)PM ratios of approximately 2. Sr-, Nd- and Pb-isotope ratios were measured on five clasts covering all four groups. Although the Sr- and Pb-isotope ratios exhibit some variability, which we attribute to alteration, the Nd-isotope ratios are within the field defined for Kwaimbaita-type lavas. We conclude that most of the compositional variability displayed by these clasts is a result of alteration and that Ta appears to be the most immobile incompatible trace element. All of the clasts were derived from the mantle source that produced the Kwaimbaita-type and Kroenke-type basalts. Our data emphasize the widespread nature of Kwaimbaita-type basalt and show that the source region was active under both the eastern salient and the high plateau of the OJP.
