Matthews Frus; Steven P. Loheide II We solicit presentations that highlight advances in the discipline,
as well as address fundamental concepts of hydrogeology.
Groundwater maintains aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in
varied climates and seasons globally. Multidisciplinary advances
in field and modeling techniques are needed to improve how such
systems are characterized, monitored, and scientific findings con-
veyed to decision makers.
