Hydrogeological Field Methods. Discharge, Pumping Test and Water Analysis

By Rainer Stickdorn

Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2016 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Geology, Mineralogy, Soil Science, grade: 1.0, Technical University of Darmstadt (Fachbereich Geologie und Materialwissenschaften), course: Report ber Freilandversuche / field work, language: English, abstract: The Hydrogeological Field Course is part of Special Modul SM9 "Hydrogeological Methods" of the MSc TropHEE and scheduled for the 2nd semester. This block course complements the Water Analysis Course scheduled for the 1st semester. Water Analysis containes lectures and a practical part with (surface) water sampling, measuring water temperature, EC, pH, oxygen concentration and alkalinity in the field as well ion concentrations in the lab. This practical part of course 3214 is documented in another report and deals with water sampling in more detail. The water sampling part of field course 3417 repeats this topic in this report. TropHEE Modul Handbook names as goals of this course: "The students are enabled to apply basic field techniques to characterize groundwater levels, groundwater flow fields, and to characterize aquifers in term of hydraulic properties. Students acquire methodical skills to use standard laboratory equipment to analyse water samples and to evaluate the results. Through the hands-on field and laboratory work they gain soft skills such as organizational skills, team working skills, communication skills, and data presentation skills."
