Vegetated Treatment of Vehicle Wash Sediments: Mathematical Modeling of Groundwater and Solute Transport

Key words: soil-water transport, van Genuchten model, petroleum hydrocarbons In modeling a phytoremediation strategy, the transport and fate processes of soil water are influenced by subsurface groundwater flow, precipitation events, microbial activity, and transpiring vegetation. This transport is modeled in a variably saturated environment in a vertical dimension and is represented by a Richa...

Vegetation changes and partitioning of selenium in 4-year-old constructed wetlands treating agricultural drainage.

The knowledge of selenium (Se) partitioning in treatment wetlands and wetland vegetation management are essential for long-term effective operation of constructed wetlands treating Se-laden agricultural tile-drainage in central California. In this field study, samples from different compartments of treatment wetlands were collected and the vegetation change in each wetland cell was examined fou...

Major role of marine vegetation on the oceanic carbon cycle

The carbon burial in vegetated sediments, ignored in past assessments of carbon burial in the ocean, was evaluated using a bottom-up approach derived from upscaling a compilation of published individual estimates of carbon burial in vegetated habitats (seagrass meadows, salt marshes and mangrove forests) to the global level and a top-down approach derived from considerations of global sediment ...

Major factors influencing the efficacy of vegetated buffers on sediment trapping: a review and analysis.

Sediment is a major agricultural pollutant threatening water quality. Vegetated buffers, including vegetative filter strips, riparian buffers, and grassed waterways, are best management practices (BMPs) installed in many areas to filter sediments from tailwaters, and deter sediment transport to water bodies. Along with reducing sediment transport, the filters also help trap sediment bound nutri...

Survival, growth, and body residues of hyalella azteca (Saussure) exposed to fipronil contaminated sediments from non-vegetated and vegetated microcosms.

We assessed chronic effects of fipronil and metabolite contaminated sediments from non-vegetated and Thallia dealbata vegetated wetland microcosms on Hyalella azteca during wet and dry exposures. Mean sediment concentrations (ng g(-1)) ranged from 0.72-1.26, 0.01-0.69, 0.07-0.23, and 0.49-7.87 for fipronil, fipronil-sulfide, fipronil-sulfone, and fipronil-desulfinyl, respectively. No significan...
