Introduction to Groundwater, Watersheds and Groundwater Sustainability Plans
An Online Short Course

This online short course, held over several days, will review the fundamental principles of groundwater and watershed hydrology, water budgets, water quality and water law and regulation in an intuitive, highly accessible fashion. Through real world examples, participants learn about the most common tools for measuring, monitoring and assessing groundwater and surface water resources. We will then review the key steps and elements of planning for groundwater sustainability.

Understanding groundwater and watersheds and how we monitor, assess and sustainably manage these resources is critical and integral to California Groundwater Sustainability Plans (GSPs) and other water management programs.

The course is specifically geared towards an audience that is or will be involved in the management, assessment, and protection of groundwater and surface water resources under California’s SGMA or similar programs.  The course will also be useful for those who engage with source water assessments, urban water management plans, and integrated regional water management plans. Course attendees, who may have some experience with but no formal training in hydrology or related engineering or science fields, will benefit from the basic and intuitive, yet comprehensive approach of this course.

This online short course is offered by UC Davis and UC Agriculture and Natural Resources. The Water Education Foundation and the Groundwater Resources Association are cooperating organizations.

It is being taught by a star line-up of groundwater experts, including Thomas Harter, Bill Brewster, Tina Cannon-Leahy. Check out the Event Website link below for more information.
