The DGS is again hosting a research symposium with presentations on Delaware Geology. This meeting is targeting geoscience professionals as well as planners, engineers, and others that use geologic data. Documentation for PG credits will be available for those attending.
The 16th annual National Groundwater Awareness Week will take place March 9-15, 2014. This is a time when National Ground Water Association (NGWA) and its partners educate the public about the resource of groundwater, its importance to public health, quality of living, and the environment, and for those who rely on groundwater from a household water well—how to take care of their water well system.
Did you know that DGS offers real-time groundwater level data? This service, operated in collaboration with the Delaware Environmental Observing System (DEOS) and the Delaware Solid Waste Authority (DSWA) has been available for several years.
Water in the Changing Coastal Environment of Delaware (Project WiCCED) is a multi-year National Science Foundation EPSCoR – funded effort that includes a consortium of scientists and educators from University of Delaware (UD), Delaware State University, Wesley College, and Delaware Technical and
The Delaware Geological Survey released a new technical report titled “Kent County groundwater monitoring project: results of subsurface exploration,” which was prepared by and A. Scott Andres, Rachel McQuiggan, and Changming He of the Survey. DGS Open File Report No.
About 30 students from Dr. Paul Imhoff’s Civil and Environmental Engineering Hydrogeology class were introduced to water level and water quality monitoring instruments and drilling equipment on March 21, 2019 at the DGS building.
Life as we know it would be impossible without groundwater. It is the world's most extracted natural resource, and it supports our ecosystems. Don't take groundwater for granted.
DGS staff member Scott Andres along with Bill Ullman and Tye Pettay from the College of Earth, Ocean, and Environment, and Chris Main of the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control had an article “Hydrophysical and Hydrochemical Controls of Cyanobacterial Blooms in Coursey Pond,
In cooperation with DelDOT, DGS is investigating the physical and chemical impacts of de-icing practices (salting and brining) and stormwater infiltration best management practices (BMP) on groundwater.
