Texas Hydro~Geo Workshop

Real-world field settings for valuable hands-on experience in aquatic biology, hydrology, geology, and environmental science
The Texas Hydro~Geo Workshop is centered on the collection, processing, analysis, and evaluation of hydrologic and geologic field data. It serves as an excellent introduction for aspiring geology, hydrology, and environmental science students, as well as a refresher for seasoned professionals.

The Workshop was created to bring students and professionals together in a field setting for a hands-on learning experience. This is a special opportunity to work with leading researchers and practitioners from across the state and nation. Participants have the opportunity to explore many different techniques for collecting data from soil, rock, and water media. This includes drilling rigs, surface and borehole geophysics, stream gauging, water quality instruments, and much more. For those that will be taking week long or longer field courses associated with your degree program, some of the Hydro~Geo Workshop modules will give you an advantage ranging from field safety, field book data collection, rock identification, how to camp, etc.

Participants select from the various modules depending upon availability. Please note that participation may be limited in some modules for safety reasons, to maintain a high participant/coordinator ratio, or for resource protection. The Workshop also includes the opportunity for attendees to present Lightning Talks to the other attendees and presenters.

The Workshop takes place at and around Cave Without a Name near Boerne, Texas. Most activities will be centered at the campsite and pavilion.
