Linking Groundwater Flow and Transport Models, GIS Technology, Satellite Images and Uncertainty Quantification for Decision Making: Buraiman Lake case study, Jeddah Saudi Arabia,
The document describes a methodology for linking groundwater flow and transport models with GIS technology, satellite images, and uncertainty quantification to predict the fate of sewage released from Buraiman Lake in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The methodology integrates flow and transport models, satellite images, GIS, and a Monte Carlo method for uncertainty quantification to provide a risk map for decision making. Sewage from the lake containing various contaminants is discharged into the local aquifer. Travel time models are developed and random walk methods are used to simulate contaminant transport in the aquifer and provide predictions under uncertain parameters.

24. CONCLUSIONS
GW and transport models can be connected with GIS
and satellite images to visualize the flow pattern and
pollution transport.
The Monte-Carlo methodology together with GIS and
satellite images are useful tools to account for
uncertainty and providing maps of uncertainty
(Envelop).
Well data showed quasi linear aquifer response when
compared with quadratic aquifer response. A point
that needs in depth investigation in arid zones.

25. OUTLOOK
Perform elaborated study with more reliable
data.
Validation of the results by collecting samples
from locations indentified by this study and
check for the level of pollution.
Check the validity of the aquifer response in
arid zones (linear versus quadratic
response).
