Mr Steven Tickell is a hydrogeologist in the Water Resources Division of the Department of Lands, Planning and Environment, Northern Territory.
The seminar ‘Groundwater: Hidden wonder of the Northern Territory’ will be presented in two parts. First, Steven will provide a basic explanation of what groundwater is and concepts of how groundwater systems operate. He will then give an NT-wide view of groundwater properties and processes.
Steven trained as a geologist and did geological mapping with various Geological Surveys including in Victoria, South Africa, and the Solomon Islands. He later moved on to the groundwater field, starting with a study of soil salinity in the Murray Basin.
In 1990 Steven moved to the NT where he has been working on a broad range of hydrogeological projects. These include hydrogeological mapping as well as local and regional groundwater resource assessments.
