The study of ground water is like the study of any other geologic field:
It requires one to go outside and get dirty, observing firsthand the processes
at work in and on the earth. Successfully piecing together the puzzle of
what is happening depends on the geologist's ability to think in four dimensions,
to use imagination, and to extract the maximum amount of information possible
from the skimpiest of clues.
This laboratory course accompanies
GEOS
3310 Environmental Geology . Students gain hands-on experience in the
fields observation and measurements of processes and phenomena in environmental
geology. Activities include stream and groundwater flow and chemistry measurements,
hydrogeologic mapping and environmental site assessment. Most class meetings
