Advances in Rock Core VOC Analyses for High Resolution Characterization of Chlorinated Solvent Contamination in a Dolostone Aquifer
(University of Waterloo, 2008-05-14)The current understanding of contaminant migration in fractured sedimentary rock aquifers is inadequate due to the difficulty in describing the geologic and hydrogeologic controls on contaminant fate and transport with ... -
Application of Stable Isotope Geochemistry to Assess TCE Biodegradation and Natural Attenuation in a Fractured Dolostone Bedrock
(University of Waterloo, 2011-01-24)Isotopic methods have been developed over the last 10 years as a method for determining chemical interactions of chlorinated solvents. These methods are especially promising for. This study attempts to employ and develop ... -
Hydraulic Tomography and Trichloroethene Dissolution in a Fractured Dolostone: Small Scale Laboratory Experiments
(University of Waterloo, 2011-12-21)In fractured geologic media, flow and contaminant transport are predominantly controlled by the fractures, their distribution and connectivity. The accurate characterization of fractured geologic medium, imaging of fracture ... -
New Approaches to the Collection and Interpretation of High Sensitivity Temperature Logs for Detection of Groundwater Flow in Fractured Rock
(University of Waterloo, 2012-08-20)The use of temperature logging for identifying water flow through fractures in sedimentary rock has declined since the 1960’s and 70’s primarily because of low sensor resolution and cross-connected flow along the borehole. ...
