Geol.851 ADVANCE HYDROGEOLOGY (3 C.H)
Nature and scope of applied hydrogeology, water resources (development and management, field methods, economics), aquifers (types, aquifer tests, cone of depression, storage, storage calculations, future projections), hydraulics (pumping, methods, equipments, tests, conditions, steady/non-steady and transient flows, laws and conditions, fluid pressures, flow in confined, semi-confined and unconfined aquifers), environmental hydrogeology, water contamination (remedies, costs), water quality, groundwater monitoring, mass transport of solutes, restoration, planning ahead, groundwater modeling, applications.
Labs:
At least four laboratory classes demonstrating and use of computer programs (e.g. AQTESOLV, FlowNetD) for determining various hydrological parameters and flow net constructions.
