Presentation Transcript
The Hydrogeology of the Chalk The Geological Society, Burlington House, London. 25th-26thApril 2018 A two day conference on the Hydrogeology of the Chalk by the Hydrogeological Group of the Geological Society (supported by the Contaminated Land Group) covering current practice and future challenges on the characterisation and management of Chalk aquifers in the UK and elsewhere. www.hydrogeologyofthechalk.org.uk rolf.farrell@environment-agency.gov.uk + 44 (0)20302 56723
The conference will focus on applied science and the management of groundwater resources and quality in the Chalk aquifer. Abstracts, both oral and poster based, are sought for sessions including geology, flow processes, developments in groundwater modelling, regulation and management, extreme events including flooding, climate change and drought, nitrate, saline intrusion, emerging contaminants and more. Scientific papers should have a clear beneficial conclusion (i.e. not purely work in progress) and all papers should be relevant to the specific peculiarities of chalk hydrogeology! www.hydrogeologyofthechalk.org.uk rolf.farrell@environment-agency.gov.uk + 44 (0)20302 56723
Features: Day one focussed on chalk groundwater resources, day two focussed on chalk groundwater quality. Website with online booking system (coming soon .) Buffet lunch provided Student and multi day discount Drinks reception after each day Follow up Geological Society Special Publication www.hydrogeologyofthechalk.org.uk rolf.farrell@environment-agency.gov.uk + 44 (0)20302 56723
Provisional Programme: Day 1. Chalk Groundwater Resources Geology Flow processes (recharge, unsaturated zone, saturated zone, SW/GW interaction, modelling) Regulation/groundwater management (including WFD, SPZs) Extreme events and climate change Day 2. Chalk Groundwater Quality Groundwater quality at the catchment scale (diffusion pollution, aerial nitrate deposition) Groundwater quality at the local scale Contaminated land Ecohydrogeology www.hydrogeologyofthechalk.org.uk rolf.farrell@environment-agency.gov.uk + 44 (0)20302 56723
