We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

Groundwater

Course subject(s) 1. Waterbalans

Dit college gaat over grondwater. Eerst worden de water cyclus en de wet van Darcy behandeld. Vervolgens wordt dieper ingegaan op de metingen in grondwater. Er worden metingen gedaan naar de grondwaterstand, dit kan met de hand of met een elektrische drukmeter,  en de doorlatendheid van de grond, dit wordt gedaan met de Boorgatmethode.

This lecture is about groundwater. First the water cycle and Darcy’s law are introduced. After that the measuring methods of the water table of groundwater and the hydraulic conductivity are explained. Water table measurements can be done manually or with an electronic pressure transducer. The hydraulic conductivity of the soil can be measured with an Auger hole test.
