The Center for Applied Mathematics supports and funds summer student research that applies mathematics to real-world problems. The Freshwater Society would like to examine the potential effects of mining in the UMore development on groundwater in Dakota County. Student researchers will investigate the question: How will the removal of sand and gravel impact water reaching the Vermillion River, specifically stretches where trout depend on cold-water discharge from groundwater to thrive? Student researchers will create a simulation tool based on the finite difference method to model changes to groundwater temperature and the driving forces that affect its flow from the mined area to the Vermillion River. Findings will inform the Freshwater Society鈥檚 water policy efforts.
