Abstract:

Teaches, using simple analytical models how physical, chemical, and biological processes in the subsurface affect contaminant transport -Uses simple analytical models to demonstrate the impact of subsurface processes on the fate and transport of groundwater contaminants -Includes downloadable modeling tool that provides easily understood graphical output for over thirty models -Modeling tool and book are integrated to facilitate reader understanding -Collects analytical solutions from many sources into a single volume and, for the interested reader, shows how these solutions are derived from the governing model equations.
