description | This paper presents a novel approach, i.e. a combination of gamma test and monitoring priority map, for optimal design of groundwater monitoring network (GMN) by considering the cumulative effects of industries, human activities, and natural factors on the groundwater quality. The proposed method was successfully applied to design an optimal network for groundwater salinity monitoring on Kish Island, Persian Gulf. The priority map of groundwater salinity monitoring was obtained based on the GALDIT index and two new factors including the average fluctuation of groundwater electrical conductivity (F) and distance from industries discharging saline effluents (P). The optimal number of monitoring wells was determined using a data analysis based on gamma test method. Then, a practical algorithm was presented to determine the optimal location of monitoring wells. Based on the results, the optimal number of monitoring wells is 110 and their location have an equitable distribution on the whole island. |
