A risk assessment tool for contaminated sites in low-permeability fractured media:A 2010 publication

摘要

In Denmark, many contaminated sites are located in areas with low permeability or fractured geologies such as glacial moraine clays. Fractures increase the risk of fast transport of contaminants to underlying groundwater systems. It is therefore important to consider fracture transport when evaluating the risk of contaminated sites to drinking water resources.
