Abstract

Current groundwater flow models lack spatial resolution required for accurate resource management. This talk covers the last four years of research into adapting electromagnetic flowmeter methodologies to groundwater flows with the latest experimental results. Included will be the development of an electromagnetic flowmeter simulation, construction of a custom power supply, and the ever-present interference, orders of magnitude larger than the real flow signal.
