SOFIA - Application of carbonate cyclostratigraphy and borehole geophysics to delineate porosity and preferential flow in the karst limestone of the Biscayne aquifer, SE Florida

This study was funded as part of a cooperative agreement between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Miami-Dade County Department of Environmental Resource Management, and received grant funding from the American Water Works Association Research Foundation. The Miami-Dade County Water and Sewer Department graciously provided additional financial support and in-kind services. We thank T. Harrison, M. Stewart, and V. Walsh for their field assistance during the April 2003 tracer test. J. Baker, H. Guha, C. Oakley, and W. Pitt provided administrative guidance and technical support during the study. J. Williams and A. Anderson provided valuable assistance during borehole flow-meter measurements. G. Shinn and Al Hine provided early technical reviews, and M. Deacon two editorial reviews. Constructive reviews by M. Grammer and an anonymous reviewer improved the manuscript.
