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 …

The design, construction, and performance analyses of a 6.1 ha evapotranspiration (ET)
landfill cover at the semiarid US Army Fort Carson site, near Colorado Springs, Colo. are …

Evapotranspiration (ET) covers have gained considerable interest as an alternative to
conventional covers for the final closure of municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills, but often …

Performance evaluation of evapotranspirative (ET) covers is critical for waste containment.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate ET covers at sites in Texas and New Mexico …

This paper describes key steps in the design process for water balance covers using a case
history at a municipal solid waste landfill in Missoula, Montana, USA as an example. The …

Evapotranspirative covers used for waste containment or land reclamation strategies are
intended to function in perpetuity. Pedogenesis of the cover materials caused by biophysical …

A new, cost-effective option for the remediation and final closure of contaminated landfill
sites gaining interest among environmental professionals is the evapotranspiration (ET) …

Evapotranspiration (ET) cover systems are increasingly being used at municipal solid waste
(MSW) landfills, hazardous waste landfills, at industrial monofills, and at mine sites …

The performance of an evapotranspiration (ET) cover for a landfill exceeds that of a
conventional landfill final cover. Its low percolation and high evapotranspiration rely on the …

Capillary barrier covers are a type of evapotranspirative (ET) cover in which the water
storage capacity of an overlying finer textured soil layer is enhanced by the presence of an …
