Hydraulic conductivity is a major parameter affecting the output accuracy of groundwater
flow and transport models. The most commonly used semi-empirical formula for estimating …

Clay‐rich deposits are commonly assumed to be aquitards which act as natural hydraulic
barriers due to their low hydraulic connectivity. Postdepositional weathering processes are …

Oxygen-18 (18O), deuterium (D), and chemical patterns were determined in pore water
samples extracted from 100-m depth in Caofeidian Harbor, China. The stable isotopic …

Solute transport in clay-rich aquitards is characterized as molecular diffusion-or advection-
dominated based on the Péclet number (Pe). However, few field-based measurements of …

The 2 m thick compacted clay liner with a permeability coefficient of 1× 10− 7 cm/s is
required in the Chinese technical specifications about landfills. The processes of chloride …

Evaluating the possibility of leakage through low permeability geological strata is critically
important for sustainable water supplies, extraction of fuels from strata such as coal beds …

The record of paleo-environment in clayey aquitard pore water is much more effective
relative to aquifer groundwater owing to the low permeability of clayey aquitard. Oxygen-18 …

This paper presents a methodology for determining the vertical hydraulic conductivity (K v) of
an aquitard, in a multilayered leaky system, based on the harmonic analysis of arbitrary …

The identification of deep drainage beneath crops and pastures is a major challenge for
determining the water balance beneath irrigated crops. This is particularly the case in …

Clayey-silt aquitards account for 60% of the~ 100-m-thick alluvial sediment sequence in the
Gunnedah area of eastern Australia. To better understand the stress-dependent hydraulic …
