(in Polish) Hydrogeologia dla geologii poszukiwawczej 1300-OHD2C-GEP
The classes are concentrated on:
- preparation of the granulometric analysis and results interpretation
- calculating the permeability coefficient by empirical formulas
- determination of hydrogeological parameters of rocks in the King’s pipes
- interpretation of hydrogeological cross-section
- interpretation of hydroizohypse map,
- computer programs for the interpretation of hydrogeological conditions
- analysis of physicochemical properties of groundwater
- interpretation and graphical projection of the physicochemical analysis of water
- techniques to identify potential sources of contamination
- familiarization with the methods of climatic and hydrogeological research in the Research Station at the Faculty of Geology of the University of Warsaw.

Learning outcomes
After completing the classes a student:
- distinguishes and calculates hydrogeological parameters of aquifer by different methods (laboratory and field methods)
- recognizes and identifies the laminar and turbulent flow
- interprets map of hydroizohypses and hydroisobathes
- implements appropriate numerical schemes for graphical interpretation of hydrogeological phenomena,
- characterizes physicochemical properties of groundwater
- interprets in graphical form and classifies groundwater chemistry; evaluates the quality of hydrochemical data
- specifies technical parameters of the well, depending on the hydrogeological situation
- identifies and recognizes the problems associated with the exploitation of groundwater in the water intakes.
Assessment criteria
Eligibility for the final course assessment is contingent upon the successful completion (and approval by the instructor) of all written assignments. The final grade for the course is determined by the marks received on written assignments and a final written exam, according to the criteria established during the first class. There are two scheduled assessment opportunities: the primary date and a retake. Attendance is mandatory. A maximum of two absences is permitted. Any absence requires the student to complete the tasks covered during the missed session.
