This document provides guidelines and resources for several assignments in the ENV 400 course. It includes links to tutorials and guidelines for weekly assignments that involve analyzing watershed management, wetlands, stream types and their environmental impacts, water resources, watershed policy formulation, and the Kelsey River watershed basin. Students are directed to specific websites to access information and instructions for completing multiple short papers and presentations over the course of the 5 weeks.

Complete the following questions after watching the video
“New Monitoring Wells along the San Joaquin River.” Respond
with 115- to 175-word answers to each question, 700 to 1050
words total. Cite your references at the end of this worksheet.
Why is it important to track groundwater conditions along the
San Joaquin River as additional water is released? How are
groundwater conditions monitored near the river?
Consider the components of watershed management. How does
the release of water from dams affect watershed management?
What is the role of precipitation in the water cycle? How does
precipitation affect groundwater conditions? How do dams
affect the water cycle?
How do precipitation and land use activities affect groundwater
conditions in general? Specifically, how might precipitation and
2. land use activities affect the wells near the San Joaquin River?
How would water flow in the San Joaquin River affect
groundwater conditions? Consider Darcy’s law and explain
what parameters or variables could change the degree to which
groundwater conditions will be affected by water flow in the
river. What is the effect of each of these parameters or
variables on groundwater conditions?
Suppose that a certain 200-foot stretch of the river has a width
of 10 feet and an average water depth of 3 feet. Assuming that
the groundwater aquifer is at a depth of 30 feet from the
bottom of the river and the hydraulic conductivity of the media
below the river bed can be estimated to be 1E-4 cm/sec, how
much water is expected to infiltrate into the groundwater
aquifer in 3 months? How would an increase of 1 foot in the
average water depth affect the amount of river water
infiltration to the groundwater?
