Chloride circulation in a lowland catchment and the formulation of transport by travel time distributions

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Gianluca Botter

Travel times are fundamental catchment descriptors that blend key information about storage, geochemistry, flow pathways and sources of water into a coherent mathematical framework. Here we analyze travel time distributions (TTDs) (and related attributes) ...

Herbicides export dynamics of a mid-sized lake tributary: lessons from observations and modelling

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Bettina Schaefli, Pierre Claude Jean Queloz

We present here a model which couples the hydrologic component and the transport of herbicides within a catchment. The model used takes into account the age structure of the stream water in order to characterize short and long term fluctuations of herbicid ...

Non-stationarity of solute travel time distribution observed in a controlled hydrologic transport volume

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Pierre Claude Jean Queloz, Luca Carraro, Gianluca Botter

We report on the outcomes of a lysimeter experiment aimed at the measurement of travel time distributions of water and certain nonreactive solutes under non-stationary conditions to examine the kinematics of age mixing. In order to simulate the release of ...

Tidal influence on soil conditions in an intertidal creek-marsh system

David Andrew Barry

To understand better how tides affect the soil conditions of salt marshes, pore-water flow in a modeled 3-D creek-marsh system was simulated under the influence of both monochromatic and spring-neap tides. In analyzing the simulation results, we examined s ...

Carbon monoxide as a tracer of gas transport in snow and other natural porous media

Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Marc Parlange, Marc Calaf Bracons, Nicolaas Cornelis van de Giesen, Scott W. Tyler

The movement of air in natural porous media is complex and challenging to measure. Yet gas transport has important implications, for instance, for the evolution of the seasonal snow cover and for water vapor transport in soil. A novel in situ multi-sensor ...

Non-Stationary Hydrologic Transport in the Vadose Zone: Experimental Results of Multiple Tracer Injections in Lysimeters

Andrea Rinaldo, Pierre Claude Jean Queloz

Travel and residence times are well-known descriptors of hydrologic and solute transport in the vadose zone. It has been observed that their probability density functions are stationary only under specific conditions, rarely encountered in natural catchmen ...

Ecohydrology of Terrestrial Ecosystems

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo d'Odorico

Water controls the dynamics of terrestrial ecosystems directly, as a resource for the biota, and indirectly, as a driver for abiotic processes on the Earth's surface, in the atmosphere, and belowground The biota, in turn, modulate several hydrological proc ...
