This somewhat interactive model demonstrates how water flows through the ground and how different land uses may affect the quality and quality of groundwater. This model allows upper elementary students through adults to visualize the out-of-sight underground portion of the water (hydrologic) cycle. The model includes all materials needed and a user's guide explaining how to demonstrate and discuss 28 different concepts. Concepts include recharging groundwater by precipitation and discharging into rivers where water is contained, and how it moves in soil and rock, and how human activities may affect groundwater. Instructions on how to use the model, background information on groundwater and a glossary are also provided in the guide.
