EESC 632 - Groundwater Flow and Contaminant Transport

Units: 4
Groundwater resource evaluation methods. Mathematical development of multi-dimensional flow equations. Introduction to computer models and numerical simulation. Properties of inorganic and organic groundwater contaminants. Contaminant transport processes. Formerly GEOL 632.

Prerequisites: M.S. Geology major.
Possible Instructional Methods: On-ground.
Grading: A-F grading only.
Student Learning Outcomes - Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:
 

  1. Master calculations of basic aquifer parameters using Darcy’s Law and the advection-dispersion equation.
  2. Practice setting up initial and boundary conditions in various geologic settings for development of a numerical flow model.
  3. Critically evaluate scientific literature from well-studied contaminated groundwater sites.
  4. Explore the transport properties of various groundwater contaminants.
