The sandstones are the second most used aquifer type in Britain, but as a fracture fluvial and aeolian red-bed sequence, they also represent an aquifer type that is common internationally. Some of the 18 papers are from a 2003 meeting in London of the Environmental and Industrial Geophysics Group and Hydrogeological Group of the Geological Society of London; others were solicited by editors or submitted by contributors. Covering flow, unsaturated flow, and pollutant movement, they discuss such topics as pore geometry measured by electrical spectroscopy, direct-current electrical properties, and investigating and managing a 35-year kerosene leak into the aquifer.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Sandstone aquifers are common worldwide: they contain a significant proportion of the Earth's fresh water supplies. However, because of their textural complexity and the frequent occurrence of both matrix and fracture flow, prediction of flow and pollutant migration is still a considerable challenge. This volume contains a collection of papers summarizing current research on an example sandstone aquifer: the UK Permo-Triassic Sandstone sequence. These red bed, organic-poor sandstones are of fluvial and aeolian origin, are often strongly textured, and are cut by discontinuities of a wide range of permeabilities. Matrix flow often dominates, but fracture flow also occurs. The papers in the volume deal with research on saturated and unsaturated flow, and solute and non-aqueous-phase liquid movement. They cover investigations from laboratory to regional scale, and involve a wide range of approaches, from petrophysical through geophysical and hydrochemical to modelling. The book is intended to be of interest to researchers and practitioners involved in water resources and groundwater pollution, and to hydrogeology, water engineering, and environmental science students.
