Displacement studies on leaching of bromide and two pesticides (atrazine and isoproturon)
were conducted under unsaturated steady state flow conditions in 24 small undisturbed soil …

A tile-drained agricultural field can be regarded as a 'field-scale'lysimeter that may be used
to study soil water and chemical transport under relatively natural conditions. Tile discharge …

Peatlands cover∼ 3% of the Earth's land area, but store∼ 30% of the global soil carbon (C),
10% of the global soil nitrogen (N), and 10% of global fresh water (Joosten and Clarke …

It is known that solute transport through soil is heterogeneous at all spatial scales. However,
little data are available to allow quantification of these heterogeneities at the field scale or …

Preferential water flow and solute transport can have dramatic effects on the leaching of
contaminants to groundwater and surface waters (via subsurface drainage) and is therefore …

Preferential flow in natural unsaturated soils is common, but difficult to characterize and
predict. The major objective of this research is to investigate the preferential flow patterns …

Predictions of the long-term development of newly established forest-reclaimed ecosystems
are required for land use planning of post-mining landscapes. The geological and …

There is a limited understanding of solute transport properties of degraded peat soils as
compared to mineral substrates. A lower organic matter (OM) content is often the result of …

The variability of the transport characteristic of pesticides has rarely been investigated. In
this study, 99 undisturbed soil columns representing a 1.8-ha field site in regular agricultural …

Accurate assessment of the fate of salts, nutrients, and pollutants in natural, heterogeneous
soils requires a proper quantification of both spatial and temporal solute spreading during …
