The hydrologic performance of evapotranspiration (ET) cover system for waste containment
is significantly influenced by the hydraulic characteristics of cover soil such as saturated …

One of the main purposes of landfill cover system is to prevent the water infiltration into the
waste mass and eventually minimize the generation of leachate. In this effort, the most …

Performance assessment of water balance cover or evapotranspiration (ET) cover is critical
for waste containment as its performance largely depends on the site-specific condition. Post …

Evapotranspiration (ET) cover system is an alternative practice for landfill closure compared
to the conventional approach because of its durability and low cost of construction. The …

This paper presents the design, construction, and monitoring of two uncompacted and one
compacted clay field-scale test sections that were built and instrumented at a landfill near …

Evapotranspiration (ET) landfill covers are an emerging final cover system in contrast to the
widely implemented conventional practice for landfill closure. Performance of an ET cover …

Three test sections were constructed and instrumented to assess the hydrologic behavior of
earthen final covers at two municipal solid waste landfills. A traditional design using a …

To evaluate the differences in the hydrological performance of actual earthen cap overlying
municipal solid waste (MSW) versus a lysimeter, which is commonly used to measure the …

A site-specific unsaturated flow investigation was undertaken for the design of an
evapotranspirative (ET) cover system at the Operating Industries, Inc.(OII) Superfund landfill …

A study was conducted in southern Georgia, USA, to evaluate how the hydraulic properties
of the compacted clay barrier layer in a final landfill cover changed over a 4-year service life …
