Field experiences in hydrogeology and environmental science can be substantially strengthened with expansion of the university's capabilities to study surface and subsurface water. This project provides a groundwater well, nested piezometers, an automatic sampler, and associated peripherals (pumps, data logger, etc.). The field site where these are installed is used by undergraduates in geology and environmental science courses, by visiting secondary school students, and by undergraduates from other institutions. Class exercises and student research projects include the delineation of three-dimensional flow patterns for local groundwater, development of groundwater and surface water hydrographs, study of the chemical evolution of subsurface water, and quantification of quickflow and baseflow contributions to a local stream. Use of this field site ensures that students have a solid understanding of the physical and chemical behavior of subsurface water in the saturated and unsaturated zones and of the interaction between subsurface flow and surface water bodies. *

随着该大学研究地表水和地下水的能力的扩大，可以大大加强水文地质学和环境科学方面的实地经验。 该项目提供了一个地下水井、嵌套式压力计、自动采样器和相关外围设备（泵、数据记录仪等）。 安装这些设备的现场供地质学和环境科学课程的本科生、访问中学的学生和其他机构的本科生使用。 课堂练习和学生研究项目包括描绘当地地下水的三维流动模式、制定地下水和地表水过程线、研究地下水的化学演变以及量化快速流和基流对当地河流的贡献。 使用这个现场，确保学生有一个坚实的理解地下水的物理和化学行为在饱和和非饱和区和地下水流和地表水体之间的相互作用。 *
