Preferential flow modelling in a vadose zone using macro 5.0 – Cape flats porous sands and Mpumalanga highveld clays case studies
(2008)
The objectives of this study were: To review and understand flow and transport processes in unsaturated zones. In this study, particular emphasis is placed on understanding mechanisms that cause non-uniform (preferential) ...
Hydrosalinity Fluxes in a Small Scale Catchment of the Berg River (Western Cape)
(University of the Western Cape, 2008)
The occurrence of dryland salinity is widespread throughout semi-arid regions of the world. The sources of salts may be either rock weathering or rain deposition. Clearing of natural scrubland to make way for cultivated ...
Preferential flow modelling in a vadose zone using macro 5.0 - Cape Flats porous sands and Mpumalanga highveld clays case studies
(University of the Western Cape, 2008)
Understanding fluid flow and solute transport within the vadose (unsaturated) zone is an essential prerequisite for protection of groundwater from contaminant sources occurring overland. Preferential flow paths in the ...
