Fig. 3. Results from the 9.6 mm h–1 (left) and the 6.2 mm h–1 (right) experiments: (A) breakthrough curves showing the relative concentration both as a function of time and the cumulative water input (the insets show early time behavior), (B) breakthrough curves in log-log plot, and (C) cumulative tracer recovery.
