EES4250 — Hydrogeology
Fundamentals of hydrology and hydrogeology with emphasis on environmental applications. The course develops the disciplines of surface water hydrology, surface water/groundwater interaction, and groundwater flow with application to common environmental problems and investigations. Emphasis is on analysis of precipitation and streamflow, hydrologic budgets, surface water/groundwater interaction, pumping tests to evaluate aquifer properties and safe yields, evaluation of the impacts of agricultural irrigation and agricultural feedlots, commonly used methods of environmental assessment, and introduction to the regulatory framework. pre-req: MATH 1290 or 1296 or 1596, and PHYS 1001 or 2013 or 2017, or instructor consent
