The heterogeneity of  these formations over a wide range of scales necessitates  consideration of sophisticated transport theories. The evolution of  such theories has escalated to the point that a review of the subject  seems timely. While conceptual and mathematical developments were  crucial to the introduction of these new approaches, there are now too  many publications that contain theoretical abstractions without regard  to real systems, or incremental improvements to existing theories  which are known not to be applicable. This volume brings together  articles representing a broad spectrum of state-of-the-art approaches  for characterization and quantification of contaminant dispersion in  heterogeneous porous media. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e The contributions are intended to be as accessible as  possible to a wide readership of academics and professionals with  diverse backgrounds such as earth sciences, subsurface hydrology,  petroleum engineering, and soil physics.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e01 December 2010\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Netherlands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9789048156382\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback \/ softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e263\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50804803534988,"sku":"9789048156382","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789048156382.jpg?v=1781782555","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789048156382","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
