Il s'agit d'un cours sur les notions élémentaires d'hydrogéologie et d'hydrologie destiné à des étudiants scientifiques, novices dans ces disciplines.

This animation is aimed at those unfamiliar with groundwater resources and groundwater contamination. It illustrates the effects of pumping and chemical releases on municipal and private water wells and to a nearby lake. The exclusion of audio is purposeful; the video guides the learner during the simulation This "animated reading" approach enables self-paced learning, including further contemplation when needed by pausing the video without loosing the value of the written word.
