The contaminant situation at a Norwegian firefighting training facility (FTF) was investigated
15 years after the use of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) based aqueous film forming …

More than 50% of the groundwater recharge in Norway takes place during snowmelt. Given
the possible threat to groundwater quality caused by potentially rapid transport through the …

The flow and transport of a non-reactive tracer and melt water was monitored in a
heterogeneous coarse sandy unsaturated zone in southeastern Norway, during the …

De-icing chemicals used during the winter season are potential pollutants for the
groundwater underneath the new main airport of Norway. Several field experiments …

Soil water movement has direct effects on environment, agriculture and hydrology.
Simulation of soil water movement requires accurate determination of model parameters as …

Assessing redox conditions in soil and groundwater is challenging because redox reactions
are oxygen sensitive, hence, destructive sampling methods may provide contact with air and …

Biodegradation is an important mechanism of contaminant removal from soils. We use
numerical simulations to study the contaminant transport in heterogeneous soils subject to …

Deep transport of degradable compounds through soils may occur if the metabolic activity in
the soil profile is low; either by natural causes (low temperature during ice melt) or by toxic …

ABSTRACT A lysimeter trench was established at the Gardermoen delta (50 km north of
Oslo, Norway) to study the flow of water and transport and degradation of aromatic jet fuel …

Roads and traffic can be a source of water-bound pollutants, which can percolate through
the unsaturated zone to groundwater. Deicing salt is widely used on roads in northern …
