In recent decades, water quality problems that impact human health, especially groundwater
pollution, have been intensely studied, and this has contributed to new ideas and policies …

Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) is one of the most common per-and polyfluoroalkyl
substances (PFAS) and is a significant risk driver for these emerging contaminants of …

We present the first demonstration of hydraulic tomography (HT) to estimate the three‐
dimensional (3D) hydraulic conductivity (K) distribution of a fractured aquifer at high …

Bioaugmentation is a promising strategy for enhancing trichloroethylene (TCE) degradation
in fractured rock. However, slow or incomplete biodegradation can lead to stalling at …

Major challenges exist in delineating bedrock fracture zones because these cause abrupt
changes in geological and hydrogeological properties over small distances. Borehole …

To counteract the ongoing salinization of coastal aquifers, which poses a significant
environmental and socioeconomic challenge to local communities, it is necessary to first …

Characterizing properties of the rock matrix that control retention and release of chlorinated
solvents is essential in evaluating the extent of contamination and the application of …

Recalcitrant groundwater contamination is a common problem at hazardous waste sites
worldwide. Groundwater contamination persists despite decades of remediation efforts at …

Laboratory batch experiments were performed to assess the reduction of trichloroethene
(TCE) and oxygen via natural ferrous minerals. TCE reduction under anoxic conditions was …

Field characterization of a trichloroethene (TCE) source area in fractured mudstones
produced a detailed understanding of the geology, contaminant distribution in fractures and …
