Many studies have investigated the migration and entrapment processes of source zones
from dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) contamination under different conditions …

Noninvasive methods for the characterization of shallow subsurface have been used
routinely for some 20–30 years. The growth in these methods has been driven by a variety of …

From nearly forty years at the international level and thirty years in Italy, the problem of soil
and groundwater remediation has been faced in order to ensure the use of the territory …

At many contaminated field sites in Europe, monitored natural attenuation is a feasible site
remediation option. Natural attenuation includes several processes but only the microbial …

In this chapter we present a brief description of hydrogeophysical methods and their history
over the past twenty years, with specific reference to their application for water resources …

Knowledge of the spatial distribution of geotechnical parameters in the near surface is
essential in engineering geology. Latest developments in engineering geophysics and …

In Italy, a significant portion of the drinking water supply is provided by groundwater, hence
also the importance given to its protection. For nonpoint pollutants, the paper describes the …

Over the past decades, significant efforts have been invested in the development of push-in
technology for site characterization and monitoring for geotechnical and environmental …

Previously, conventional techniques for characterizing contaminated sites were often
applied with limited strategic planning, resulting in time-consuming and costintensive …

Abstract 2D multiphase modeling of DNAPL behavior in a realistic subsurface morphology of
the former industrial site of Chimica Bianchi provided evidence that moderate groundwater …
