Season 3 Episode 2 - Groundwater Rocks!
This is the second of our quarterly episodes of 2025 which will each break down a subtopic of "hydrogeomorphology," or the study of how water and landforms interact.
In this episode, our very own Watershed Specialist Rachael Marques and Kurt Wagner of the PA Rural Water Association chat with PCCD Communications Coordinator Emily Mansfield about how groundwater and geology interact.
Listen to get answers to questions like "How does geology affect a place's water quality," "Why do some communities get their tap water from aquifers and some from surface reservoirs," and more!
Below are some online resources Kurt mentions in the podcast:
Surficial Geologic Map of Pike County - PA Geological Survey
Pike County Groundwater Quality Assessment (2007) - USGS
Geology & Mineral Resources of Pike County - PA Geological Survey
