Learning about groundwater movement and water quality (GWWQ) is a great first step for understanding the source and quality of water that you drink every day! The GWWQ Program is designed to introduce the basics of how groundwater moves through aquifers and how contaminants, such as nitrate, move with the groundwater.
Nebraska Extension Associate Becky Schuerman and Specialist Troy Gilmore have designed the GWWQ for middle school and high school students, but the activities and concepts are relevant to anyone who relies on groundwater for drinking water and other uses. In other words, GWWQ is relevant to most Nebraskans!
