The Impact of Glaciation and Permafrost on Groundwater Flow

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the effects of climate change on periglacial hydrology and glaciers in Greenland, and propose a model of the Greenland Analogue Project (GAP) and the Deep Geologic Repository Program (DGP).

Matrix diffusion model - in situ tests using natural analogues: Dissertation

TL;DR: In this paper, a model testing methodology was developed by combining measurements of long-lived natural decay chains yielding the experimental reference, rock matrix characterisations, and matrix diffusion simulations, and repeated model tests were carried out at two Finnish natural analogue study sites, the U-Th deposit at Palmottu, and a boulder sample near Hämeenlinna; both sites show elevated natural radioactivity.

Estimation des paramètres de transport en milieu hydro-géologique et analyse d'incertitudes

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of identifying parametres de transport de solutes in un milieu poreux peu permeable is addressed. André et al. use deterministes (ou variationnelles) basees sur the minimisation d'un critere (ou fonction cout) quadratique, l'objectif andant de trouver l'ensemble des parametre which minimisent le critere.

Coupled modeling of cement/claystone interactions and radionuclide migration.

TL;DR: The interactions between cement and a clayey host-rock of an underground repository for intermediate-level radioactive waste are studied with the reactive transport code HYTEC for supporting performance assessment.

Zeolite formation during the alkaline reaction of bentonite

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of phillipsite-(Na,K), (Si/Al ratio of 1.8-2.4), has been found in a series of closed-system hydrothermal tests at 35-90 °C when the resulting pH was within the 11.7-12.6 range.

Advances in the geological storage of carbon dioxide : international approaches to reduce anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the long-term variations of CO2 and CO Concentrations in the Ground Atmospheric Layer near the City of Tomsk (Western Siberia) and the influence of water composition.

Chemical Containment of Waste in the Geosphere

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the underlying chemical principles that are common to all forms of waste management by geological means, and that rely to some extent upon chemical containment, and conclude that the potential for chemical containment should be considered in all form of geological waste management.

The IEA Weyburn CO2 monitoring and storage project : final report of the European research team

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model for hydrodynamic calculation of heads and flows of aquifers with a rectangular grid in transient state for the Weyburn field.
