BEE 5270 - Water Measurement and Analysis Methods


     
Fall. 3 credits. Letter grades only.

Prerequisite: hydrology, soil or fluid mechanics course. Co-meets with BEE 4270 .

B. Richards, T. Steenhuis.

Managing soil and water resources requires monitoring. In this field-based lab course, you learn techniques to quantify water flow in the surface and subsurface environment and to monitor lake and river water quality. Soil health considerations, measurement accuracy, and water sampling quality assurance are discussed. The final project consists of designing a detailed and in depth water quality monitoring plan for a research or industrial site. Graduate students review the literature on the accuracy of the lab methods and present the results in class.
