Investigating Subsurface Flow Delivery to a Small High Arctic River
Preferential flow pathways and hydraulic gradients along the hillslope-floodplain-channel continuum are dominant controls on the delivery of baseflow, stormflow and solutes to channels in temperate systems. Arctic systems are increasingly being shown to possess similar delivery mechanisms, however …

Modeling the flow of non-Newtonian fluids in packed beds at the pore scale
Flow and transport in porous media are important in many science and engineering applications such as composite materials, subsurface water contamination, packed-bed reactors, and enhanced oil recovery. The general approach to modeling such processes is at the continuum scale. Semi-empirical …

On the scope and assessment of pesticides in groundwater in Skåne, Sweden
… heterogeneity directing water and solute flow (particularly the presence of preferential flow pathways), and groundwater turnover rates. Environmental tracers show great potential as tools for simple but effective calibration of transport models and for deciphering pollution trends and …

Surface water and groundwater in a changing climate: applications of hydrogeophysics and trend analysis to understand hydrologic systems
… that supplies a significant quantity of base flow to the regional surface water system. This is especially evident during the region’s dry season from May to October, during the Austral winter. The Cordillera Blanca contains the world’s highest coverage of tropical glacial ice, and this ice is …
