Sentence examples for migration of leachate from inspiring English sources

However, due to variable factors controlling the formation and migration of leachate, chief of which is rainfall, coupled with the complex nature of the unsaturated zone, fluctuation in the concentrations of measured parameters can be expected sporadically.

The high phosphate concentration in unsaturated zone water and groundwater may also be related to vertical migration of leachate and leaching below the unsaturated zone profile since phosphates are not very mobile in soil or sediments (Hem 1992).

Application of zeolite in the soil can retard the migration of leachate and, as a result, allow the exchange and/or decomposition of heavy metals Shi et al. (2009).
