Description

Features

• NEW - Six new lab exercises.

  • Provides students with practical material that explores regional aquifer studies, slug tests, and the use of tracers to determine aquifer and contaminant parameters and modeling retardation, biodegradation, and aquifer heterogeneity.

• Available at a discount when wrapped with any PH hydrology/hydrogeology text.

• 21 lab exercises.

  • Offers students and instructors broad coverage of the topics at hand.

• Flexible format.

  • Allows instructors to select material to enhance their lecture coverage.

• Accompanying CD-ROM—Contains data files, spreadsheets, programs, and ParticleFlow—a finite-element numerical model used to simulate groundwater flow and particle transport.

  • Supplies students with a very user-friendly, powerful tool that can model groundwater flow and contaminant particle flow, and enable students to investigate the difference between assuming aquifer homogeneity and modeled heterogeneity.

New To This Edition

• Six new lab exercises.

  • Provides students with practical material that explores regional aquifer studies, slug tests, and the use of tracers to determine aquifer and contaminant parameters and modeling retardation, biodegradation, and aquifer heterogeneity.
