Orphan date February 2009 In hydrogeology , the representative elementary volume REV is the smallest volume over which a measurement can be made that will yield a value representative of the whole. Below REV, the parameter is not defined and the material can not be treated as a continuum. In order to establish a given porous medium s properties, we are going to have to measure samples of the porous medium. If the sample is too small, the readings tend to oscillate. As we increase the sample size, the oscillations begin to dampen out. Eventually the sample size will become large enough that we begin to get consistent readings. This sample size is referred to as the representative elementary volume. If we continue to increase our sample size, measurement will remain stable until the sample size gets large enough that we begin to include other hydrostratigraphic layers. This is referred to as the maximum elementary volume MEV . Groundwater flow equation has to be defined in an REV References Earth 359. Flow though porous media.

A Light Non Aqueous Phase Liquid LNAPL is a groundwater contaminant that is not soluble and has a lower density than water , which is the opposite of DNAPL . Once LNAPL infiltrates through the soil, it will stop at the height of the water table since LNAPL is less dense than water. The effort to locate and remove LNAPL is relatively cheaper and easier than DNAPL because LNAPL will float on top of the water in the underground water table.

Notability date September 2008 Autobiography date January 2011 Gary A. Robbins is an American hydrogeologist. He has made many valuable contributions in the areas of Expedited Site Assessment, MTBE contamination, analytical modeling, ground water sampling and bedrock hydrology . Biography Early life and education Robbins graduated from Brooklyn College with a B.S. with Honors in Geology. Following his college graduation, he served in the New York and Rhode Island National Guards. He went on to graduate school at Brown University where he received his M.S. degree in Geology, concentrating in Isotope Geochemistry. Career He then went on to work at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission , working on power plant siting, engineering geology and waste disposal. His work in this latter area kindled his interest in hydrogeology . He then went to Texas A&M University and obtained a Ph.D. degree in Geology, specializing in Hydrogeology, under Dr. Pat Domenico and Chris Mathewson. He stayed on there for a year as an Assistant Professor conducting research related to mining, hydrodynamic dispersion and contaminant transport modeling. During this period he collaborated with Pat Domenico to develop the Domenico and Robbins Model ref http earth1.epa.gov ada csmos domenico.html ref and the concept of dispersion scaling due to model dimensionality mismatch. He left Texas A&M to go to Woodward Clyde Consultants in Santa Ana, California for two years. While in California he continued his academic career as an adjunct Professor at California State University, Fullerton and at the University of California, Riverside . In 1986, he began his career at the University of Connecticut . Dr. Robbins is often sought after to conduct training and to perform consulting.

mergefrom Hand bailer date May 2011 Unreferenced date December 2007 A bailer in hydrogeology is a hollow tube used to retrieve groundwater samples from monitoring wells. Groundwater monitoring wells are drilled in areas where there are underground storage tanks or where there is environmental remediation occurring. The wells are typically built out of PVC casing which is slotted to allow groundwater to flow freely through the well. Bailers are tied to a piece of rope usually made from nylon or polypropylene or a piece of wire composed of Teflon or stainless steel and lowered into the water column. Once lowered, the bailer uses a simple ball check valve to seal at the bottom in order to pull up a sample of the groundwater table. Bailers can be disposable or reusable, and they are made out of polyethylene, PVC, FEP or stainless steel. There are advantages and disadvantages to using bailers for groundwater sampling. Bailers are simple devices to use and are relatively inexpensive. Disposable bailers are usually cleaned to United States Environmental Protection Agency specifications and individually packaged to protect sample integrity. In addition, bailers can be lowered to any depth while pumps have sharp limitations on the depth of the well. The main drawback of using bailers is aeration of the water as the sample is obtained, which could release volatile organic compounds that need to be tested. Also, if there is a high amount of sediment or turbidity , this may interfere with the ball check valve seating correctly. The term bailer is also used colloquially in British English to refer to someone who reneges on a commitment, e.g. Sarah D bailed on going to Spain. Sarah D is a bailer . The term is also used less formally in British English to describe someone who is unreliable or is less than trustworthy, e.g. I wouldn t ask Sarah to do that, Sarah is a bailer .

reflist Unreferenced date August 2009 Water abstraction , water extraction , or groundwater abstraction is the process of taking water from any source, either temporarily or permanently. Most water is used for irrigation or treatment to produce drinking water . Depending on the environmental legislation in the relevant country, controls may be placed on abstraction to limit the amount of water that can be removed. Over abstraction can lead to river s drying up or the level of groundwater aquifer s reducing unacceptably. The science of hydrogeology is used to assess safe abstraction levels. In some U.S. industries, the terminology for water use describes the removal of water from the environment as water withdrawal , and the conversion of fresh water into water vapor or wastewater as water consumption . ref http www.ucsusa.org clean energy technology and impacts impacts energy and water.html?utm source SP&utm medium more&utm campaign SP more nuke water 4 21 11 ref ref http neinuclearnotes.blogspot.com 2008 03 nei fact sheet on water consumption at.html ref References references Category Hydrology Industry stub ... more details
