The Crawford Hydrology Laboratory (CHL) within WKU’s Applied Research and Technology Program (ARTP) is a nationally leading laboratory for the study of groundwater flow with an emphasis on specialized study of karst landscape development in soluble bedrock in which caves, sinkholes and large springs are common, and groundwater resources are extremely vulnerable to contamination. 

 

In May, CHL is hosting a webinar Fluorescent Dye Tracing: Applied Methods for Environmental Solutions. With about 25 participants, the webinar has attracted an international audience from around the US as well as from Belgium, Jamaica, and Ecuador, including scientists from government agencies, environmental consulting firms, and even cave explorers interested in better understanding the landscapes they explore.
