Techniques in Karst Groundwater Investigations is a field-intensive course that focuses on broadening participants understanding of groundwater tracing methods through direct hands-on experience and classroom lectures. This summer students were instructed in environmental problems common in karst areas, and the dye tracing principles and techniques available for solving groundwater problems in both karst and non-karst terrains. Lecturers offered practical examples of groundwater investigations and wide-ranging groundwater tracing techniques.

Dr. Nicholas Crawford, Dr. Chris Groves, and Crawford Hydrology Lab Manager, Ms.Lee Anne Bledsoe, were the lecturers for this three-day workshop, June 6-8, 2012, at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
