Water Flow and Solute Transport in Soils reflects the main trends of contemporary research in this field and its applications. The contributions fall into three main areas: - The stochastic modeling of solute transport through he- terogeneous soil in the upper layer of the unsaturated zone. - The more traditional scope of analysis of flow through homogeneous or layered formations. - The applications like new devices for field measurements, calculation of solute movement through a soil cover, and the use of geo-statistical methods to quantify solute concentrations in spatially variable soils.
