Full Text:: : Geostatistics Applied to Groundwater Contaminant Plume Characterization Abstract approved: Previous to this

Creator:: Smyth, Jeffrey D.
Abstract:: A field study was conducted to determine the applicability of multivariate geostatistical methods to the problem of estimating and simulating pesticide concentrations in groundwater from measured concentrations of nitrate and pesticide, when pesticide is undersampled. Prior to this study, no published attempt had been made to apply multivariate geostatistics to...

Creator:: Hopkins, Omar Snowden
Abstract:: Radon-222 gas has unique properties allowing it to be used as an indicator for the presence of organic phase liquids in the saturated zone. It naturally occurs in soils. It is radioactive, making quantitative detection straight forward. A noble gas, it is chemically inert and does not react with aquifer...

Creator:: Alumbaugh, Robert E.
Abstract:: Benzylsuccinate (BSA), methylbenzylsuccinate (methylBSA), and ethylbenzylsuccinate (ethylBSA) are unambiguous anaerobic biotransformation products from toluene, xylenes, and ethylbenzene decay, respectively, and may be used to indicate intrinsic bioremediation is occurring at hydrocarbon-contaminated sites. In order to improve upon current methods that detect and quantify anaerobic hydrocarbon metabolites in field samples, solid-phase-extraction...

Creator:: Davis, Brian M.
Abstract:: This study investigated the use of radon-222 as an in situ partitioning tracer for quantifying nonaqueous phase liquid (NAPL) saturations in the subsurface. Laboratory physical aquifer models (PAMs), field experiments, and numerical simulations were used to investigate radon partitioning in static (no-flow) experiments and in single-well, 'push-pull' tests conducted in...
