Role of the Vadose Zone in Subsurface Hydrology (cont.)

Friday, November 8, 2013: 2:45 p.m.-4:15 p.m.
Understanding flow in the vadose zone is critical for a proper understanding, and ability to analyze, ground water – surface water interactions, ground water recharge, response of unconfined aquifers to pumping, subsurface contamination and the remediation of contaminated sites. This session will focus on recent advances related to these important topics.
