AbstractThe long-term programme of in-situ radionuclide migration experiments in the underground test site at Grimsel (GTS) involves the development and testing of radionuclide transport models with their associated databases. The field experiments are carried out in a water-bearing shear zone in crystalline rock utilising a suite of tracers of differing geochemical behaviour. A rigorous model testing procedure has been developed for the GTS radionuclide migration experiment. This paper describes application of this testing procedure to a solute transport code developed by PNC.
