20402166 - HYDROGEOLOGY

Ability to locate, quantify and manage groundwater resources; ability to produce hydrogeological maps; ability to size groundwater abstractions; ability to produce hydrogeological schemes and/or hydrogeological models. Students will be stimulated to analyse the problems and propose the relative solutions.

Programme

1) Aquifer concept. Porous, fractured and karstic aquifers. Hydrogeological complexes and aquifer geometry: recharge area, aquiclude and aquitard; surface/groundwater interaction; seawater/groundwater interaction; multilayer aquifer
2) Regional hydrogeology: hydrostructures in Central Italy; Umbria- Marchean domain; Lathium – Aruzzo domain; volcanic domain; hydrogeological role of the faults.
3) Spring. Spring classification for the aquifer geometry and related abstraction rules. Dicharge and depletion curves. Protection zones of the spring recharge area: rules of demarcation
4) Groudwater recharge: base flow, water budget, effective infiltration
5) Groundwater circulation: hydrodinamic principles. Bernoulli theorem, from Darcy law to Dupuit and Theis groundwater flow models
6) Signs of hydrogeochemistry and isotopic chimistry applied to hydrogeological concepts
7) Hydrogrological survey: pumping tests and hydrodinamic paramiters determination; collection, elaboration and interprtation of hydrogeological data (precipitation, air temperature, river/spring dicharge), evapotraspiration estimation, recession curve analisis, piezometric surfaces recostruction.
8) Hydrogeological maps at different scales
