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

    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).
