Geomorphology (surface features)

See definitions on the next slide

Hydrogeology (groundwater resources)

Groundwater elevation changes (or level changes)

Negative values indicate that the groundwater resources are being over-drafted (withdrawal from wells > replenishment from precipitation, irrigation, and snow melt)

Student Work Assignment • Design a pilot study for a sensor system to monitor groundwater

sustainability in Jodhpur District – Present this design to the class on Friday in class

• Your report should include:

1. A summary of the current problem, focusing on groundwater levels (depth to groundwater) and salinity

2. Your approach and methods: • What your groundwater monitoring node design (sensor types, data

acquisition and communication devices, power supply) • A sketch of an installed node • An estimate of necessary operation and maintenance work which will

be required • A proposal for where to place your nodes (assume that your pilot

study funding will allow 5 nodes to be installed)

3. Suggestions for training local citizens to maintain the systems 4. A discussion of your data management, analysis and

presentation approach to the Jodhpur District officials
