Field Hydrogeology Course
This course builds key field hydrogeology skills for semi-arid regions. You will learn to measure groundwater and rivers, sample water quality, do hydraulic tests, and analyse data to create strong conceptual models. These skills help make practical decisions for sustainable water management in challenging environments.

What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills in hydrogeology for dry areas, covering aquifer models and field tests for water flow. Master measuring groundwater levels, river flows, and water quality, then use charts, chemical data, and maps to figure out safe pumping rates and make solid plans for managing water in real basins.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Design monitoring networks by planning wells, sampling times, and essential data records.
- Measure groundwater levels and streamflow using tapes, data loggers, ADCP tools, and quality checks.
- Conduct and analyse pumping tests and slug tests to determine permeability, transmissivity, and storage accurately.
- Examine water chemistry and isotopes to understand recharge sources, mixing patterns, and salinity issues.
- Develop conceptual models for basins by mapping water paths, balancing water budgets, and outlining management strategies.
