Abstract Subsurface physical barriers have been effectively used to mitigate seawater intrusion (SWI). Traditionally, the primary emphasis in both numerical studies and practical implementations has been on vertical barriers. The current research aims to explore the dynamics of SWI under various cutoff-wall inclination angles and depths, as well as aquifer heterogeneity using both experimental and numerical simulations. The impact of aquifer characteristics was assessed by utilizing a low hydraulic conductivity (K) aquifer (case L), a high hydraulic conductivity aquifer (case H), and two stratified aquifers. The stratified aquifers were created by grouping different hydraulic conductivity layers into two cases: high K above low K (case H/L) and low K above high K (case L/H). The model simulations covered seven different cutoff-wall inclination angles: 45.0°, 63.4°, 76.0°, 90.0°, 104.0°, 116.6°, and 135.0°. The maximum repulsion ratio of SWI wedge length was observed at an inclination angle of 76.0° for cutoff-wall depth ratios up to 0.623. However, as the depth ratio increased to 0.811, the maximum repulsion ratio shifted to an angle of 63.4° for all aquifers studied. At an inclined cutoff depth ratio of 0.811, the cutoff-wall inclination angle of 45.0° had the most significant impact on the saltwater wedge area. This results in SWI area reductions of 74.9%, 79.8%, 74.7%, and 62.6% for case L, case H, case H/L, and case L/H, respectively. This study provides practical insights into the prevention of SWI. Nevertheless, a thorough cost–benefit analysis is necessary to assess the feasibility of constructing inclined cutoff-walls.

Abstract The use of fiber optic distributed temperature sensing (DTS) to detect and locate leaks is still in its infancy in water infrastructure, despite its promising capabilities. Only few experiments tested this technology, and none of these studies focused on small but persistent leaks, like background leakages, which are ubiquitous and generally go undetected with the technology currently available, thus posing a serious threat to the available water resource. To test the feasibility of detecting and locating background leakages with fiber optic DTS, this study provides a detailed analysis on flow and temperature alterations around leaking water pipelines in presence of small leaks (5, 25, and 125 L/d) with small to moderate temperature differences with the surrounding soil, under 3 different pipe defect configurations, either in absence or in presence of pipe thermal insulation. Transient 3D heat transfer-unsaturated flow numerical simulations showed that there is potential to use temperature alterations to detect and locate incredibly small leaks with fiber optic DTS, like background leakages, despite the influence of pipe temperature on the surrounding soil. The analysis showed that extent, distribution, and magnitude of these alterations are convection dominated at a given temperature difference between leaked water and undisturbed soil, and that it may not be strictly necessary to place the optical fiber directly below the pipe. Indeed, optical fibers located within the utility trench at the sides of the pipe and below its bottom showed comparable or even better performance, thus giving new opportunities to retrofit existing pipelines as well.
