About this title

Synopsis

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
