November PG Candidate Workshop

Subject: Geophysics

Speaker: Yonesha Donaldson

Yonesha Donaldson will be covering the fundamentals of geophysics and common geophysical methods used in hydrologic studies. Yonesha (Yannie) Donaldson is a Ph.D. student at the University of Georgia, a researcher in the UGA Water Resources and Remote Sensing Laboratory, and a National Science Foundation B2D Fellow. Her current research is focused on hydrogeophysics: the application of geophysical techniques to determine recharge, physical properties, and behavior of inland freshwater lenses. Before attending UGA, Yannie attended Rutgers University-Newark where she graduated with a BS in Geoscience. During two years of her undergraduate, Yannie worked as a research assistant collecting, analyzing, and presenting near-surface geophysical data on a multitude of projects ranging from determining depth to bedrock to monitoring chlorinated solvents and oil spills at Superfund sites.
