1. Chemical Hydrogeology GLY-5828

2. What this course is: Diffusion equation Dispersion Convection-Dispersion equation Boundary conditions Sorption Production and decay

3. Learning Outcomes Derive diffusion and convection dispersion equations Solve equations numerically Understand and apply boundary conditions Thorough understanding of dispersion Be able to do inverse modeling

4. Expectations Perfect attendance Homework independent and on time Thorough preparation for quizzes Quality projects

5. Homework Weekly Short reports on specific exercises usually including modeling and comparison with analytical solutions English, spelling, units, significant figures, quality of graphics, accuracy of analysis, and quality of evaluation will all be considered in grading You may work together to develop your understanding, but you must complete all assignments yourself; copying the work of others (including from the Internet) is unacceptable and will result in a grade of F Late homework reduced 25% for each late day 1/2 of grade

6. Quizzes 1/8 of grade Weekly 10-minute quizzes following completion of the homework assignment Quiz grades will be weighted to account for 1/8 of overall course grade

7. Examinations One mid-term and one final examination will focus on concepts, theory, derivations, and practical computations associated with solute transport Examinations will be based on lecture, homework, and quiz material 1/8 of grade each

8. Projects An in-class presentation of a solute transport modeling effort 1/8 of your grade. Graded on content and professional quality Submit a one page description of your project concept early in the semester Individual and group projects are possible, but equal effort (and a regular full presentation) is expected from all group project participants. Presentations will be at the end of the semester.
