Environmental Stratified Flows

and the effects of flow on the transport of toxic wastes Physical limnology: internal seiches, sediment resuspensions, nutrient distribution, and wind-induced currents Subsurface flow and transport (the unsaturated zone and groundwater): diffusion and dispersion of solutes, fingering, macropore flow, reactive solutes, motion of organics and non-aqueous liquids, volatilization, microbial effects on organics, density effects, colloids motion and effect, and effects of field scale heterogeneity Debris flows, initiated by lava flow from volcanic eruptions; mud flows caused by mountain storms; snow avalanches, granular flows, and evolution of deserts Oil spills on the sea surface and clean-up Indoor contamination: transport of particles in enclosed space, clean room technology, effects of temperature variation Risk assessment: industrial accidents resulting in the release of toxic or flammable gasses, assessment of air and water quality New methods of data acquisition: the use of HF radar, satellites, and Earth Observation Science Stochastic models and Mass transfer
