<br />THE AUTHORS
<br />MILos NOVOTNY
<br />Milos M. Novotny is a Hydro
<br />geologist at S.S. Papadopulos
<br />and Associates, Inc. in Boulder,
<br />s Colorado, where he works on
<br />groundwater model develop -
<br />ment and support, specifically
<br />characterizing aquifer condi-
<br />tions in the western U.S. His
<br />research interests include Envi-
<br />ronmental Tracer Hydrology
<br />and Modeling of Natural Sys-
<br />tems. He received his B.S. in
<br />Geology from Indiana Univer-
<br />sity and M.S. in Geology from Colorado State University.
<br />WILLIAM SANFORD
<br />William E. Sanford is a Hydro -
<br />geologist and an Associate Pro-
<br />fessor in the Department of
<br />Geosciences at Colorado State
<br />University, where he has been
<br />since 1996. His research inter-
<br />ests include Environmental and
<br />Applied Tracer Hydrogeology
<br />and Hydrogeology of Fractured
<br />Aquifers. Prior experience
<br />includes 4 years at Oak Ridge
<br />National Laboratory in Ten-
<br />nessee studying radionuclide transport in fractured mud -
<br />stones. He received his Ph.D. in Soil and Water
<br />Engineering and M.S. in Geophysics from Cornell Univer-
<br />sity and B.S. in Geology from Beloit College.
