Groundwater Simulation System
Bar Code: 1371
Description: This kit illustrates what ground water is, how
it is stored, where it comes from, and where it is going. The kit
allows study of Darcy's Law. It contains a large visual demonstration
which requires 1 hour+ to set up. For best results, the kit should
remain functional for several hours to several days.
