Accurate modeling of water flow and solute transport in unsaturated soils is of significant
importance for precision agriculture, environmental protection and aquifer management …

The contaminant mass discharge is a relevant metric to evaluate the risk that a groundwater
plume poses to water resources. However, this assessment is often vitiated by a high …

The thermal response test (TRT) in an aquifer establishes a relationship between the
groundwater flow rate and the recorded temperature response curve of temporal ground …

Considering the need of characterizing temporal dynamic of groundwater and the lack of
available methods, we investigate the feasibility of active-Distributed Temperature Sensing …
