Objective
The objective of the project is to develop reliable models for density driven pollutant transport in groundwater. Ensuring reliability implies the extensive testing of models against benchmarks, against each other, and against laboratory experiments. For the transfer of the methods to the field, the influence of heterogeneity and up scaling is investigated into. Three field case studies with scales from tens meters up to tens kilometres will be evaluated and simulated. The results of the project will be presented in a report showing the intermodel comparison in a benchmarking exercise, the simulation of small scale experiments by all three models, and rules for upscaling to the field. Time dependent simulations and experimental results will also be presented in the form of videos. The results of the different experiments will be stored in database. They will be available for other scientists (public domain) after the project.
