Evaluation of a radiochemical method to estimate the rate of solute diffusion within a dual porosity Chalk aquifer

This thesis investigates a potential radiochemical method for estimating the capacity of the dual porosity Chalk aquifer to attenuate solutes. Solutes are advected by groundwater flow through fractures, but are slowed and attenuated by molecular diffusion into immobile water in the Chalk matrix. Fra...
