Tracer-based Flow Analysis

Tracer-Based Flow Analysis is a methodological approach in hydrology that identifies and quantifies subsurface flow paths by tracking the movement of introduced or naturally occurring tracers through porous media, distinguishing it from other flow analysis techniques by its reliance on tracer dynamics to infer flow connectivity, velocity, and residence time.
