INTO LITTORAL SWEET-WATER HORIZONS

Consideration has been given to mathematical models of 
certain two-dimensional, steady-state filtration flows of sweet groundwater 
from a reservoir (water storage), via a rectangular pressure water-bearing 
stratum, to a sea with saline water overlain by a sweet water layer. 
The algorithm of calculation of the intrusion of sea saline water 
into littoral sweet-water strata where groundwater flows enter the 
sea from the side (scheme of Polubarinova-Kochina and Mikhailov) or 
from below (Bear-Dagan scheme) have been developed based on these 
models.
