GEOE 475/475L Groundwater/Lab

Credits: (2-1) 3

Geohydrologic principles, applications, and design considerations concerning groundwater occurrence, flow, and quality. Groundwater and surface-water relations; theory of aquifer tests; flow nets; head distribution by graphical, analytical, and digital models; groundwater contamination. Laboratories include water budgets, chemistry of groundwater, design of exploration programs and aquifer tests, computer solutions, and field trips to areas of geohydrologic interest. A design project with written and oral presentations is required.
