They will use this information to make sound decisions about siting locations for industries/business that may have an impact on water quality. In the first part of the activity, students will analyze a diagram of divisions of subsurface water and examine the relationship between precipitation, evaporation, infiltration, and runoff. In the second part of the activity, they will use an aquifer map to research and answer questions about local water supplies and threats to these supplies. Educational levels: Middle school, H...
