FIELD NOTES

research focused on system behavior and vulnerability; and collection and management of a vast array of data. In January of 2020, the division acquired a 151-acre property that will serve as a focal area for long term research in support of aquifer sustainability. Deemed the Field Research Park, the property is located over the environmentally sensitive Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. Future work at the Field Research Park is focused on conducting long term observations of hydrologic and geochemical behavior of groundwater, surface water, soils, and other parameters that may influence quality and quantity of water that recharges the aquifer system. The division comprises the following departments: Aquifer Protection, Aquifer Science and Research, Modeling, and Data Management.
