This hydrogeological study of the proximal outwash plain of the Matanuska Glacier, Alaska was conducted in an effort to understand better the controls on water table fluctuations. Data were analyzed from four points: two wells in the proximal outwash plain, a stream gauging station, and a meteorological station. Well 1 is located 660m from the glacier terminus and 140m from the Matanuska Glacier River. Well 2 is located 1080m from the terminus and 180m from the river. The water levels in these wells possibly respond to changes in glaciohydraulic pressure, direct infiltration, and stage of the nearly Matanuska Glacier River. The stream gauging station, located on the Matanuska Glacier River, is approximately 276m from the terminus of the glacier and presumably responds quickly to changes in glaciohydraulic pressures. The water levels in the two wells responded much more slowly than the river to changes in the glaciohydraulic system. A seasonal rise in the water table in early July displays a slight "sag" which we correlate to a similar drop in river stage four days previously, presumably in response to a period of cooler weather and decreased melting on the glacier. Both wells responded simultaneously, despite one well being much closer to the terminus, suggesting that the nearby river may exert a direct control on water table fluctuations, while the glacier exerts an indirect control through the river. Additional data analysis will shed more light on these relationships.
