TLDR
In this article, the authors apply the phenomenological boundary layer approximation, and suggest a reference to three different zones in the flow field: (a) fresh water zone, (b) transition zone, and (c) mineralized water zone.

Mixing at the interface between two fluids in porous media: a boundary-layer solution

TL;DR: In this article, the mixing-layer problem for sea-water intrusion was solved by using a boundary-layer approximation, which was used in the past for the case of uniform flow of the upper fluid.

Transverse dispersion of contaminants in fractured permeable formations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the mechanisms involved in the mineralization of the Great Bend Prairie aquifer of Kansas by salt water originating from Permian bedrock formations, which are fractured sandstones.

Microscale haline convection‐A proposed mechanism for transport and mixing at the water table region

TL;DR: In this article, it is suggested that haline convection is a major transport and mixing mechanism at the water table region of granular aquifers under natural flow conditions wherever the intervention of man changed the chemical composition of natural replenishment.

Boundary layer theory

TL;DR: The flow laws of the actual flows at high Reynolds numbers differ considerably from those of the laminar flows treated in the preceding part, denoted as turbulence as discussed by the authors, and the actual flow is very different from that of the Poiseuille flow.
