FIG. 11. Breakthrough curves calculated using the Dual-Porosity Model with One Kinetic Site for a 10-cm-long soil column and the following parameters: solute pulse duration = 10 d, q = 3 cm d–1, {theta} = 0.5, {theta}mo = 0.3, {theta}im = 0.2, {lambda}mo = 1 cm, Kd = 1 cm3 g–1, {rho}b = 1.5 g cm–3, fmo = 0.6, {alpha} = 0.1 d–1; on the left, fem = 0.4 and {alpha}ch = 0.1, 0.5, and 10 d–1 ; and on the right, {alpha}ch = 0.1 d–1 and fem = 1.0, 0.7, 0.4, and 0.1.
