The Impact of Hydro-meteorological Variables on groundwater level fluctuations at the Laramie Range Mountain, and Mountain-front Basin Aquifers
The Impact of Hydro-meteorological Variables on groundwater level fluctuations at the Laramie Range Mountain, and Mountain-front Basin Aquifers
The main objective of this research is to create a machine learning model to forecast GWL fluctuations, as well as to identify the main temporal and spatial variables that affect groundwater level fluctuations. The questions that we seek to answer in this research are (Q1) What surface variables drive GWL fluctuations in the Laramie range? (Q2) How do confined and unconfined aquifers in mountains and mountain-front basins respond to these variables? (Q3) How does the groundwater level in these aquifers varies seasonally: Winter, summer and fall seasons?

Application of Electrical Resistivity Technique to investigate the extent of pollution at a municipal waste dumpsite in the Ashanti Region of Ghana.
Application of Electrical Resistivity Technique to investigate the extent of pollution at a municipal waste dumpsite in the Ashanti Region of Ghana.
This research employed the Electrical Resistivity method to delineate the extend of pollution at a waste dumpsite which was close to a borehole in the Ashanti region of Ghana. The main objective of the project was to ascertain whether the pollutants from the waste dumpsite has polluted the aquifer system of the area or not. Our results showed that the pollutant plume is gradually spreading towards the borehole which was a source of drinking water to the people living in the area. Based on our results it was recommended to the office of sanitation to ban the dumping of waste at the site.

Blair-Wallis well field: Data download and measuring depth-to water using E-Tape
The Blair-Wallis well field is composed of granitic and metamorphic rock formations that receives high precipitation as snow due to its high elevation, and is a component of the mountain hydrological system draining into lowland basins.
Belvoir Ranch well field
Government Gulch Well field
Government Gulch well site, and Belvoir Ranch well site are at the mountain fronts in the downstream sedimentary basins that receive Groundwater recharge from the higher-elevation Blair-Wallis well field
