Geosphere Performance Indices: Comparative measures for site selection and safety assesment of deep waste repositories
The concept of Geosphere Perfonnance Indices (GPis) is proposed. The "performance"<br/>refers to the geosphere's capacity to retain/contain radionuclides in the event of their accidental<br/>release at some point in time. The GPis are based on the Lagrangian stochastic-analytical<br/>framework for transport in the subsurface and are believed to render useful tools in performance<br/>assessment studies in general and in the site selection process in particular.
