New Experimental Tools to Use Noble Gases as Artificial Tracers for Groundwater Flow

Labeling groundwater by injecting an artificial tracer is a standard and widely used method to study groundwater flow systems. Noble gases dissolved in groundwater are potentially ideal artificial tracers, as they are not subject to biogeochemical transformations, do not adsorb onto the aquifer matr...
