Climate Controlled Lab

Climate Controlled Lab

Two Climate Controlled Laboratories (CCLs) are being used to explore a variety of gas transport, evaporation and combined evaporation and salt precipitation phenomena at the critical Earth-atmosphere interface​ (e.g., Kamai et al., 2009 WRR; Nachson et al., 2011 WRR; Ganot et al., 2014 AFM; Ben-Neriah et al., 2014 WRR; Levintal et al., 2016 AFM). ​

These customized CCLs enable exploration of the impact of daily and seasonal temperature variations, as well as climatic changes, on the above- mentioned phenomena. ​
Earth-atmosphere Interface

Earth-Atmosphere Interface

A unique field setup has enabled in-situ, long-term monitoring of temperature and humidity inside a natural discrete fracture that crosses a chalk formation (Weisbrod et al., 2009 GRL; Nachshon et al., 2012 JGR). This setup and others that are not pictured aim at exploring processes at the Earth-atmosphere interface.
Managed Aquifer Recharge and Soil Aquifer Treatment

Managed Aquifer Recharge and Soil Aquifer Treatment

A variety of equipment was installed in one of the Shafdan infiltration ponds used in soil aquifer treatment (SAT), to enable long-term 3D monitoring of subsurface wetness, as well as 1D or 2D monitoring of redox conditions, air and water pressure, and more.

These field experimental stations, combined with laboratory scale studies, assist in our efforts to better understand the SAT system and increase its efficiency. ​

Soil and Water Sampling System

Soil and Water Sampling System

A variety of customized sampling and sensing systems are being used in field and laboratory studies.
