Description

Advances in Subsurface Contamination of Porous Media: Indicators, Processes and Modelling provides a high level understanding of the processes concerning common and emergent contaminants through their passage from soil to groundwater. The book presents new methodologies and indicators to reach a better understanding of biogeochemical processes as a basis for environmental models. The combined use of the understanding of processes and models' prognosis will inform researches and water managers and will provide the possibility for better management and preservation of water resources. The book will be a valuable reference for graduate students, researchers and professionals in government and public institutions, and for those interested in soil and groundwater contamination in various aspects.

Table of Contents

Keynote lectures: - Multicomponent diffusion in clays - Modelling of solute mass transfer across the capillary fringe - Strategies to quantify contaminant degradation in groundwater using stable isotope data Alternative methods and indicators of water quality in natural porous media Biogeochemical processes from soil to groundwater Numerical simulation of pollutant transport and interaction in soil and subsoil
