The dominant application of groundwater engineering is the provision of water supplies for municipalities, agriculture, and industries. Groundwater is the earthÂ’s most abundant available fresh water source, exceeding that in all of the fresh surface water bodies on earth. With increasing demands for water from growing world populations, agriculture, and industry, groundwater is becoming an even more important source of fresh water for society.
Public groundwater supplies are vulnerable to a variety of contaminants including fuel spills, unauthorized dumping of waste materials, leachate from landfills, agricultural practices, and urban development. This course (7 credits) is an introduction to wellhead delineation including simple methods, hydrogeologic mapping, and modeling. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of course materials.
