Dr. Sanders
Agenda: Survey on geospatial
knowledge, continue with last week's lab work, present the results,
investigate hydraulic properties.
By
the end of today's class, you
should be able to do the following:
v Use simple
lab apparati to
investigate the movement of water through open conduits and through
porous media: Bucket-to-Bucket Transfer, Capillary Action, Darcy
Discovery, Draining Work, Holey Water Bottle, and Infiltration
Observation. (If you didn't get it last week, you can still click
here for an MSWord copy of the instructions.)
v Present your results.
v Define each of the
following hydraulic properties of porous
materials:
porosity
effective
porosity
specific yield
specific
retention
v Develop laboratory experiments to
estimate the values of each of the hydraulic properties listed above.
