- For this question you should read sections 2.1 to 2.5 in Fetter (1993) and it will be helpful to refer to the publication by Ogata and Banks (1961). Using the Ogata-Banks analytical solution to the advection-dispersion equation (see attached Excel spreadsheet), answer the questions below. Read Section 2.2 to understand the characteristics of the complimentary error function. Plot the results with concentration (C) on the Y axis and Time on the X axis. This form of plot is known as a breakthrough curve. Conceptual Model An unlined waste disposal site is located some distance L from a pristine river system. The waste disposal site is built on a sandy aquifer that has a relatively high permeability and the groundwater velocity varies seasonally from 0.2 to 0.8 m/day. The groundwater flow direction is from the waste disposal site toward the adjacent river.arrow_forwardPlease answer all questions in detailarrow_forwardhumanize and answer like a student: What is Tsunami?

- 18. 19. 20. - 15. 16. 17. The desired outcome of the curriculum delivered in environmental studies and sciences (ESS) programs at U.S. universities typically follow one of three ideal models- those focused on the systems sciences, those focused on policy and governance, or those focused on: a. adaptive management. b. environmental resource conservation. c. frontline practices of sustainability. Friedrich Ratzel's concept of lebensraum was turned to expansionist geopolitical ends through a particular reading of the work of Charles Darwin. One of the assumptions that Ratzel made in applying Darwin's ideas to the political world was that both animals and nation-states are: a. changing through the process of evolution. b. engaged in a competition where only the fittest will survive. c. surviving and developing in substantial part through cooperative strategies. In qualitative research, it often helps to distinguish between descriptive codes, which are often categorical or refer to simple…arrow_forward30. 29. Climate scientist Mike Hulme argued that people who tend to see nature as benign or resilient, and who believe that we can adapt in part by making greener consumption choices and in part by embracing a future that will involve broadly tolerable levels of climate change, tend to be: a. egalitarians. b. hierarchists. c. individualists. Consider the following abstract from a research article published in a peer-reviewed journal titled Geographical Review: "Research on the human dimensions of global climate change should consider the way [that] at-risk populations confront uncertainty through cultural practices. This is a vital point for Indigenous peoples around the world, but particularly for those in the Arctic region where the effects of climate change are most dramatic. The Iñupiat of Arctic Alaska are especially susceptible to climatic and associated environmental changes, because they rely on sea ice to hunt the bowhead whale.
