GEGN 466/467
EXPECTATIONS FOR EXAM II
everything
on the list for exam I
and
- understand
the basis for the ground-water flow equations and the significance of simple
boundary conditions including: constant head, no-flow, constant flux and phreatic
surface
- be
able to apply the well hydraulics solutions for confined, leaky, and unconfined
aquifers to predict drawdown (including consideration of boundaries and multiple
pumping wells)
-
estimate transmissivity using the Theim equation
-
estimate transmissivity and storage parameters using the Theis equation and
its modifications for leaky, unconfined, and long time pumping (Jacob method)
conditions for both pumping and recovery situations
-
use the well hydraulics equations and associated analyses to design a pumping
test
-
estimate hydraulic conductivity for a transient unconfined aquifer test
-
estimate hydraulic conductivity from slug test data
-
understand the concept of head loss in a well and how that will effect calculations
using the well hydraulics equations
- understand fundamental
concepts of chemistry
- use and convert
common units of concentration of chemical species in water
-
be able to evaluate the quality of a water chemistry analysis (charge balance,
measured/calculated TDS)
-
present water chemistry information in various formats
-
plot a ground-water analysis, in mg/L, on a Piper diagram, and classify it
using the Piper classification system
- use
water analyses to understand the flow system
- understand
and evaluate alkalinity
-
evaluate states of chemical equilibria
-
calculate a saturation index for a given ground water to determine if a water
is saturated with respect to a given mineral
- determine activity
coefficient of a water sample
- determine ionic
strength of a water sample
-
use water analyses to determine the Eh/pH conditions
- determine the
potential for scaling and corrosion given water quality
You may bring 3 pieces of paper with you to the exam with as much written
on them as you wish, both sides, small print etc. Creating such a sheet helps
you study and provides the equivalent of an "open-book" exam without the problem
of spending too much time paging through the book. You can bring your sheets
from exam 1 as well.
