| Determining the source of ground water contamination and when the impact occurred are important factors at the heart of many ground water contamination cases for purposes of cost recovery and insurance litigation, for example. This session invites contributions that showcase tools applied to solve difficult or unique problems, such as contaminant transport analysis or geochemical fingerprint and isotopic analysis. Papers sought include those on techniques, modeling, and case studies. | |||
