Field Techniques in Hydrogeology EASC 416 (3)

This course is intended to complement the theoretical aspects of hydrogeology by providing students with hands-on experience using hydrogeological equipment, and implementing sampling and testing protocols. The course involves a series of pre-field session assignments consisting of the analysis and interpretation of geophysical, geochemical and surficial geology data, and a week at a hydrogeology field site on the Fraser River delta, British Columbia. After the field work, students will conduct extensive analysis and interpretation of data gathered during the field session, complete exercises and prepare a written report. The course runs for about three weeks following spring term final examinations. Prerequisite: REQ-EASC 304, EASC 315 or EASC 412. Quantitative.
