  Introduction to Groundwater Systems (GEOSM401)

  Groundwater systems. Groundwater is a vital freshwater resource that supports billions of people and a vast range of ecosystems globally. This UWA micro-credential introduces the key components and processes at play in groundwater systems.
  
  What is groundwater and where does it come from?
  How fast does it move, how long does it stay in the ground?
  Can we use groundwater sustainably?
  This micro-credential focuses on these questions to develop knowledge of groundwater systems. It is designed for people who have undergraduate-level scientific literacy and numeracy skills and are interested in advancing their understanding of groundwater systems.
  
  Topics covered include the geological setting of groundwater
  resources, groundwater storage and flow, groundwater recharge, surface water–groundwater interaction and groundwater dependent
  ecosystems.

  Price: $AUD1,188 inc. GST

  Organised by University of Western Australia.

  Characterising Groundwater Resources (GEOSM402)

  Groundwater resources. Groundwater is a vital resource in many regions of the world for sustaining populations and groundwater-dependent ecosystems. This micro-credential focuses on techniques for quantifying and utilizing groundwater resources.
  
  The course is designed for people who have undergraduate-level scientific literacy and numeracy skills as well as some knowledge of groundwater systems.
  
  Topics covered include conceptual model development, using flow equations in groundwater systems, an introduction to drilling technology, production wells and aquifer testing.

  X Curso de modelación hidrogeológica

  In Spanish: modelación hidrogeológica, teórica y práctica con software gratuito. Este curso intensivo ofrece una formación integral en modelación hidrogeológica, combinando fundamentos teóricos con un enfoque eminentemente práctico mediante el uso de herramientas numéricas y software gratuito de referencia (MODFLOW, MODPATH, MT3D, SUTRA, VS2DTI y PhreeQC). Comienza con una introducción a la modelación numérica del flujo y al entorno ModelMuse. Además, se incorpora el uso de MODFLOW mediante Python (FloPy), proporcionando una primera aproximación a flujos de trabajo automatizados y reproducibles. También se estudiará la modelación del transporte de solutos, el transporte con densidad variable, el flujo en zona no saturada y la modelación hidrogeoquímica.

  Price: 300 € for IAH members

  Organised by Spanish Chapter IAH.

  Calculation method for nitrates loads in rivers – the remainder approach

  Nitrates loads assessment in rivers using remainder technique. Work contributed to the "The World's Water - our secret Nitrogen engine" (textbook, 1st Ed. UK/compilation, Taylor & Francis 2026) is here excerpted with the permission of the authors, who share an engineering workaround for load estimation of nitrates in rivers and streams. The work was inspired by aquifer transport of nitrates in mining groundwater, when a report submitted by consultants to the Melbourne City Council, required load estimates for the Yarra.
  The course offers a simple and quick workaround for otherwise complicated equations, using a technique produced in a cross-university study for a core curriculum textbook. Course will be held in the meeting rooms at Royal Randwick, Belmore Rd - near the junction of High St UNSW Campus and the racecourse. In event of unforeseen circumstances, the course will be held in online mode, at the reduced rate of $200 pp.

  Price: 1200 pp (attendance mode only)
