Facilities
- Most hydrogelogic/hydrologic modeling/simulations are conducted on supercomputer systems and our newly established hydro computing laboratory which consists of a networked Sun server, three high performance workstations, and a number of personal computers. This Sun Unix system has 1 G memory, more than 100 G storage space, and most advanced softwares such as C/C++, Fortran, and Java compilers, image tools, Visulization softwares, Arc/info geographic information system, and remote sensing analysis software. National Supercomputing Center for Energy and the Environment (NSCEE) here at UNLV can provide additional CPU time and other softwares for supercomputing and analysis.
- Physical and chemical hydrogeology laboratories in the Department of Geoscience and the Harry Reid Center for Environmental Studies are here in place for conducting the lab experiments of various physical and chemical mechanisms and chemical analysis of common chemical components and rare earth elements.
- Various equipments from the Desert Research Institute (DRI) are available for conducting field studies in the field of hydrogeology/hydrology including environmental isotope analysis.
