invites presentations on recent developments in understanding, measuring, and modelling subsurface flow and solute transport processes in both the saturated and unsaturated zones, as well as across boundaries between these These systems are complex and extremely heterogeneous exhibiting variations on a multiplicity of scales.Īddressing heterogeneity in all its manifestations is the focus of exciting and intense forefront scientific research and industrial activities. Development and application of decision support systems to enhance sustainable feedbacks between anthropogenic activities and the natural functioning of aquifers and underground reservoirs requires reliable methods to infer key parameters controlling multiphase flow and contaminant fluxes of conservative or reactive chemicals in subsurface environments.
