A simplified schematic showing conceptualized water flow through Yucca Mountain (adapted from Bechtel SAIC Company, 2004, Conceptual model and numerical approaches for unsaturated zone flow and transport. MDL-NBS-HS-000005, Rev.02. Las Vegas, NV). This issue's special section on nonclassical transport features joint investigations performed at the Nuclear Safety Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California. Such collaboration is essential to understanding transport phenomena in heterogeneous media in the context of geologic disposal of radioactive waste at planned storage facilities like Yucca Mountain. See “Preface: Nonclassical Transport,” p. 1179–1180, by Leonid Bolshov, Peter Kondratenko, and Karsten Pruess.
