Dr. Paradis gave a YouTube livestream webinar titled, Tracking Salt: From Winter Roads to Summer Streams, as part of this year’s Wisconsin Salt Awareness Week. This research is based on Leah Dechant’s master’s thesis that is focused on quantifying the mass discharge of chloride from groundwater to the Root River in Racine, Wisconsin during the summer/non-road salting months.

New Publication on Modeling Uranium Transport Parameters
A new research article titled, Single-Well Push–Pull Tracer Test Analyses to Determine Aquifer Reactive Transport Parameters at a Former Uranium Mill Site (Grand Junction, Colorado), was recently published in the scientific journal Minerals. This research used PHREEQC (geochemistry), PHT-USG (flow and transport), and PEST (calibration) to understand the importance of cation exchange, sorption, and gypsum dissolution on the fate and transport of uranium at a former mill tailings site.
