National benefits will accrue from the provision for postdoctoral, PhD and IT staff training, while direct links with industry will provide technology transfer to end-users to ensure community uptake. The project will benefit rural and regional communities by providing long-term solutions in the areas of water use and quality, pesticide pollution reduction, and improved environment and human health care.Read moreRead less

Summary
Two-scale numerical modelling of coupled transport in heterogeneous media. Groundwater constitutes a vital part of water resources in Australia, however, the quality of this water is susceptible to contamination. This project aims to develop an innovative two-scale mathematical model for contaminant transport that accounts for small-scale heterogeneities found in the unsaturated zone of an aquifer located between the ground surface and the underlying groundwater. The project aims to develop valu ....Two-scale numerical modelling of coupled transport in heterogeneous media. Groundwater constitutes a vital part of water resources in Australia, however, the quality of this water is susceptible to contamination. This project aims to develop an innovative two-scale mathematical model for contaminant transport that accounts for small-scale heterogeneities found in the unsaturated zone of an aquifer located between the ground surface and the underlying groundwater. The project aims to develop valuable environmental insights, a simulation tool that will help in making decisions regarding the future management of Australian groundwater resources, and a general two-scale modelling and simulation framework for other important environmental and industrial problems involving coupled transport in heterogeneous media.Read moreRead less
