| - Introduction - Definitions: groundwater resources advantages and drawback, relative importance in the world, in Belgium, in Walloon region.
- Hydrological cycle and water balance of a basin, groundwater reserves.
- Confined, water table and perched aquifers: definitions and examples, importance of a clear geological understanding when defining hydrogeological conditions.
- Hydrogeological parameters and groundwater flow equations: hydrostatic, porosities, hydraulic conductivity and Darcy's law, intrinsic permeability, generalisation, application, limitations, measurements on field, piezometric maps, application examples, transmissivity, steady state groundwater flow in saturated conditions, specific storage coefficient, transient flow in confined and water table aquifers.
- Hydrochemical state of groundwater, main principles of protection zones, vulnerability mapping. |

|
| On the basis of concrete examples drawn from environmental studies
- preparation of data processing (coding, missing data, outliers, computer files)
- selection of data processing method in function of the objectives of the environmental study
- short and concrete presentation of various graphical and mathematical processing tools (filtering, smoothing, harmonic analysis, ...) and of statistical tools (descriptive statistics, regressions, analysis of variance, factor analysis, ...) in the frame of environmental studies
