"Groundwater Science, Second Edition"-winner of a 2014 Textbook
Excellence Award (Texty) from The Text and Academic Authors
Association-covers groundwater's role in the hydrologic cycle and
in water supply, contamination, and construction issues. It is a
valuable resource for students and instructors in the geosciences
(with focuses in hydrology, hydrogeology, and environmental
science), and as a reference work for professional researchers.
This interdisciplinary text weaves important methods and
applications from the disciplines of physics, chemistry,
mathematics, geology, biology, and environmental science,
introducing you to the mathematical modeling and contaminant flow
of groundwater.
New to the Second Edition: New chapter on subsurface heat flow
and geothermal systemsExpanded content on well construction and
design, surface water hydrology, groundwater/ surface water
interaction, slug tests, pumping tests, and mounding
analysis.Updated discussions of groundwater modeling, calibration,
parameter estimation, and uncertaintyFree software tools for slug
test analysis, pumping test analysis, and aquifer modelingLists of
key terms and chapter contents at the start of each chapterExpanded
end-of-chapter problems, including more conceptual questions
