Geologic formation – when & how was it formed? • (15 pts.) Hydrodynamics – how does water flow through it? What is its capacity? • (15 pts.) Conservation Concerns – pollution, subsidence, urban sprawl, overuse, etc. • MODELING • (15 pts.) Use an aquarium and materials determined by your aquifer. • (15 pts.) Must be a working model, demonstrating how water and pollutants enters and exits. • (10 pts.)
