This year’s hydrology field camp spanned from the banks of the Lower Colorado River, to the Texas Hill Country, to the Yucatán Peninsula. In Mexico, the camp studied groundwater-seawater interactions in the fishing village of Celestún before traveling inland to study (and cool off) in the cenotes that ring the city of Mérida.
