Groundwater Cycle
by Antoine Aubeneau- 0.0
5 Weeks
The Earth is blue for its oceans but green for the blankets of groundwater under our feet. This course explores the water cycle from under the ground. How much groundwater do we use and what for? How much do the trees? How do we model water fluxes? Groundwater is the water beneath the ground surface....

Wells Hydraulics
by Antoine Aubeneau- 0.0
5 Weeks
The Earth is blue for its oceans but green for its groundwater. We use wells to extract water from the ground. In this course we address questions such as: How well tests tell us if an aquifer can provide enough water? How can we use wells to dewater construction sites? Groundwater is the water beneath the ground surface....

Groundwater Contamination
by Antoine Aubeneau- 0.0
5 Weeks
The Earth is blue for its oceans and green for its groundwater. Access to clean freshwater is essential yet human activities deteriorate water quality. This unit describes contaminant transport in aquifers. Groundwater is the water beneath the ground surface. It is a vast freshwater reservoir often overlooked because invisible, yet 1000 times greater than all lakes and rivers....
