Abstract
Flow, of course, is a crucial topic in many environmental sciences. Flow is the carrier of advective transport (see Chap. 3). Biogeochemical species are transported by flow through environmental compartments and through systems of compartments. Often transport with the flow is the fastest process by which a species of potentially hazardous impact, starting from a source, reaches a sensitive region.
