STRATIGRAPHIC FLUX — A METHOD FOR DETERMINING PREFERENTIAL PATHWAYS FOR COMPLEX SITES
Curry, P.J., N.R.H. Welty, A.J. Yanites, C. Varley, and J.A. Quinnan.
Remediation 30(3):51-64(2020)
Funded by the U.S. Air Force, the Stratigraphic Flux approach was developed to provide a framework to understand contaminant transport pathways at complex sites and enable more reliable and cost-effective remediation. Stratigraphic Flux enables the development of quantitative, flux-based conceptual site models that are founded in sequence stratigraphy, and high-resolution hydraulic conductivity and contaminant distribution measurements. The article describes the Stratigraphic Flux framework, focusing on the key information needed and the methods of analysis. The approach was applied at a former chrome pit at Air Force Plant 4 in Fort Worth, TX to evaluate migration pathways for TCE and Cr.
