GEOE 475/475L/575/575L Groundwater/Lab

Credits: (3-0) 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. Specific topics include chemistry of groundwater, exploration programs, aquifer tests, computer solutions, and field trips to areas of geo-hydrologic interest. An engineering design report with analysis and results is required.

Prerequisites: (GEOL 201/201L or GEOE 221/221L) and MATH 125
