Pore Volume
• Desaturation eliminates larger flow channels (larger pores) and increases the
proportion of the volume of water that does not readily move. These almost
stagnant zones (soil micropores) act as sinks to ionic diffusion
• Desaturating the soil causes an incomplete displacement of the initial solution by the
solute, thus a more rapid appearance of solute is observed.

velocity increases.

De = Dlh + Dl
-Since Dsl is not expected to change with velocity, Dlh is the term changing with
velocity.
-This extra spreading due to hydrodynamic dispersion is due to complicated flow paths
around soil particles, to differences in water velocity within single pores, and to
differences in water velocity in adjacent pores.

If the chemical being transported through soil is reactive meaning that it "breaks

☺For chemicals that are biodegraded, how would biodegradation affect the shape
of the breakthrough curve for that chemical?
