Groundwater Contaminant Transport Impact of heterogenous characterization: a new view on dispersion

By F.B.J. Barends Copyright 1997

    Impacts of developed tools of heterogenous characterization on the hydrodynamics of flow and the transport mechanisms are illustrated in this text through a series of extensive numerical simulations consisting of single and multiple-realizations (Monte Carlo method).
