Handling
Explanation of how the FEP is treated
Excavation/operation: Neglected since expected electrical potential fields are too small to affect groundwater flow or solute transport.
Temperate: Neglected since expected electrical potential fields are too small to affect groundwater flow or solute transport.
Periglacial: Neglected since expected electrical potential fields are too small to affect groundwater flow or solute transport.
Glacial: Neglected since expected electrical potential fields are too small to affect groundwater flow or solute transport.
Earthquakes: Not relevant.
