Abstract

In 2008 Rosemary Knight founded the center for Groundwater Evaluation and Management (GEM) at Stanford, with the objective of developing and demonstrating the use of geophysical data to address the most pressing “real-world” problems in the evaluation and management of groundwater resources. A core principle of the center is the adoption of a solution-focused approach in close collaboration with groundwater managers. The GEM center has had a significant impact on the field of hydrogeophysics, both in terms of advancing the state of the science and of the practice. This is particularly evident in the state of California, where geophysical methods are being adopted at both the state and local groundwater management levels, to address the pressing need to sustainably manage this essential resource.
