DescriptionThis report presents the results of three-dimensional numerical simulations of the unconfined ground-water-flow system in the Toms River, Metedeconk River, and Kettle Creek drainage basins. Results of numerical simulations are used to estimate aquifer-system properties, determine the hydrologic budget, determine ground-water-flow patterns, describe transient-flow characteristics, and estimate the hydrologic effects of recent and projected ground-water withdrawals. Estimates of changes in (1) the overall hydrologic budget, (2) average and seasonal base flow of streams, (3) average and seasonal ground-water levels, (4) the location of ground-water divides, and (5) leakage to underlying confined aquifers are included.
