The influence of soil moisture, oxygen, and temperature on naphthalene biodegradation and CO2 and CH4 effluxes
(University of Waterloo, 2023-09-22)Petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs) are essential to the functioning of the industrialized world yet serve a potential threat to human and ecosystem health when they inadvertently enter the environment. In recent decades, ... -
Linking soil moisture content and carbon dioxide fluxes: From batch experiments to process-based modelling
(University of Waterloo, 2020-02-19)The emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from soil to the atmosphere represent a major flux within the global carbon cycle. Soil CO2 fluxes depend on environmental factors including soil moisture and oxygen, and on intrinsic ... -
Monitoring Shallow Vadose Zone Moisture Dynamics using Electrical Resistivity Tomography and Electromagnetic Induction
(University of Waterloo, 2015-06-15)This hydrogeophysical study examines the capacity of the surface electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and electromagnetic induction (EMI) methods to monitor soil moisture dynamics in the shallow vadose zone over the ...
