Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER)/VCR009: Groundwater Budgets on Hog Island and at Brownsville
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
LTER/VCR009: The objective of this project is to provide estimates of flow paths and rates of transport through the subsurface environment in upland areas at each end of the box transect from Hog Island to the mainland.
Description
This information is critical to understanding nutrient processes, plant zonation, and soil digenesis on Hog Island, and estimating the flux of nutrients between upland areas and the fringing marshes. Water levels are being measured weekly on all wells.
Selected wells are monitored continuously by water level recorders. Some salinity data is also being collected at Brownsville and on Hog Island. Weekly water level measurements were collected from a transect of 21 wells at Brownsville.

On the peninsula, 17 wells were drilled at a depth of approximately 15 feet below the surface, one at a depth of 158.75 feet, and one at 28.56 feet. Two wells (approximately 8 feet below the surface and penetrating the shallow aquifer) were hand-augured in the marsh on either side of the peninsula.
