Description

A statement is made on the laboratory know-how in the field of the applications of tracers in the fight against hydrological pollution. In surface hydrology it concerns the determination of the self-purifying powers of watercourses and the treatment of a certain number of problems relating to the transfer of polluting substances to the hydrographical system. In hydrogeology, the various studies made and being made deal with the transfer of water, a vector of pollution, with the interaction of polluting agents with the porous environment, and thus with the general problem of the protection of underground water catchments

Abstract (French)

On expose le savoir faire du laboratoire dans le domaine des applications de traceurs pour la pollution en hydrologie. En hydrologie de surface il concerne la determination du pouvoir d'autoepuration des cours d'eau et le traitement d'un certain nombre de problemes relatifs au transfert de substances polluantes dans le reseau hydrographique. En hydrogeologie, les differentes etudes realisees et en cours ont trait au transfert de l'eau, vecteur de la pollution, a l'interaction des polluants avec le milieu poreux, et de la au probleme general de la protection des aires de captages des eaux souterraines
