Abstract

Three goals of this research were: (1) to study the movement of a non-reactive tracer (bromide) and of water through non-aggregated fine sand, with low clay (1.2%) and organic matter content (<1%); 2) to develop an inverse method for estimating the hydraulic properties of unsaturated soil from intermediate- and field-scale infiltration data; and (3) to develop a transient in-situ method for calibrating the neutron probe. All three goals of this research are crucial for understanding and determining water and solute transport at the intermediate to field scale. The field research was conducted in a field-scale research facility--the University of Arizona Superfund lysimeter (400-cm deep and 250-cm in diameter). We found equilibrium condition...
