Review of Capillary Rise Experiments for Surface-Active Solutes in the Subsurface
Geotechnics, 2022 Surface-active solutes that exist in the subsurface either naturally (humic acid) or as a result of anthropogenic activities (alcohols, surfactants, PFAS) alter the hydraulic and geotechnical properties of the unsaturated porous media.
