Runoff and Infiltration Model

In this activity, students will model and describe the effects of human activity on groundwater and surface water in a watershed. Using a modular 3D model and going through a guided lab, students will explore the fate of precipitation over three different landscape types found in our watershed: a city parking lot, dry soil conditions, and wet soil conditions. Through this activity, students will discover how natural and human activities affect the Earth’s surface and ecosystems.
