Aquifer Characterization Tests and Transducer Data Collection
Presented on Tuesday, November 29, 2011
This workshop will cover fundamentals of groundwater hydrology and is designed for groundwater specialists, environmental professionals, and drill operators. Learn how to streamline aquifer tests, reduce field time, and deliver high-quality data. Due to technological advances, aquifer tests can be conducted with greater speed and accuracy, all at a lower cost. The workshop will cover slug tests, step-drawdown tests, and constant-rate pump tests. Learn definitions and goals of aquifer tests, equipment needs, design and operation of testing procedures, test duration, use of data for calculating hydrologic parameters, and techniques to improve efficiency in the field.
