Dr. Maureen Muldoon
Dr. Muldoon, who joined the Department in 1998, teaches three hydrogeology courses (Physical, Chemical and Field Methods), as well as Environmental Geology, and occasional field trips.
Before joining the staff at UW Oshkosh, she worked as a hydrogeologist with the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey for almost 11 years where she conducted groundwater research throughout Wisconsin, worked with several counties on inventories of their groundwater resources, and taught several short courses. Her research interests include investigation of groundwater quality and flow in carbonate rocks, relationship between carbonate stratigraphy and hydraulic properties, hydrogeology of Pleistocene deposits, land-use impacts on groundwater quality, and delineation of wellhead protection zones in fractured rock. Because of her work on fractured-carbonate aquifers, she was an invited member of an American Society of Testing and Materials Task Force that wrote a Guidance Document on "Designing Ground-Water Monitoring Networks in Karst and Other Fractured-Rock Terranes".
Maureen received her A.B. degree from Washington University in St. Louis and her M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
