Numerical modeling of reinjection and tracer transport in a shallow aquifer, Nesjavellir Geothermal System, Iceland
Abstract Reinjection of excess water from the power production process in the Nesjavellir geothermal field has increased the temperature of shallow groundwaters, posing a risk to cold water wells used for the power plant as well as the ecosystem in Lake Thingvellir. Here, we present a numerical mode...
