How Many People Can the Aquifer Support? part of NAGT:Our Resources:Teaching Resources:Teaching Materials Collection
Samantha Lindgren, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
This aquifer simulation allows students to investigate the effects of adding a city and a farm, and adding wells with different pumping rates to meet human consumption needs. Students can observe the changes in the water table, wetlands, and river outflow through generated graphs and use the simulation to analyze the effects of human activity, drought, and climate change on the availability of fresh water.
