Some field trips are possible. Fall term annually. Hydraulics An in-depth, quantitative treatment of fluid flow in subsurface media. Derivation of the fluid flow equation followed by application to various hydrologic situations, including flow to wells. Emphasis on analytic solutions and their assumptions.
Some field trips are possible.
Spring term annually. ERTH-6730 Groundwater Contaminant Transport Theoretical and applied study of solute transport phenomena. Analytical and numerical solutions of the advection-dispersion equation and other techniques for solving groundwater contaminant transport problems. Issues of contamination sources, basic chemical concerns during transport, and monitoring and remediation are also covered. Transport modeling is also introduced.
