Analytical modelling of stable isotope fractionation of volatile organic compounds in the unsaturated zone [PDF]
, 2011 Analytical models were developed that simulate stable isotope ratios of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) near a point source contamination in the unsaturated zone. The models describe diffusive transport of VOCs, biodegradation and source ageing.
