8 Soil Gas Movement in Unsaturated Systems(8不饱和土壤气体运动系统)
8 Soil Gas Movement in
Unsaturated Systems

8.1 GENERAL CONCEPTS RELATED TO GAS MOVEMENT
An understanding of gas transport in unsaturated media is important for evaluation of soil aeration
or movement of O2 from the atmosphere to the soil. Soil aeration is critical for plant root growth
because roots generally cannot get enough O2 from leaves. Evaluation of gas movement is also
important for estimating transport of volatile and semivolatile organic compounds from contami-
nated sites through the unsaturated zone to the groundwater. The use of soil venting, or soil vapor
extraction, as a technique for remediating contaminated sites has resulted in increased interest in
gas transport in the unsaturated zone (Rathfelder et al., 1995). Migration of gases from landfills,
such as methane formed by decomposition of organic material, is important in many areas (Moore
et al., 1982; Thibodeaux et al., 1982). Soil gas composition has also been used as a tool for mineral
and petroleum exploration and for mapping organic contaminant plumes. An understanding of gas
transport is important for evaluating movement of volatile radionuclides, such as 3H, 14C and Rd
from radioactive waste disposal facilities. The adverse health effects of radon and its decay products
have led to evaluation of transport in soils and into buildings (Nazaroff, 1992). A thorough
understanding of gas transport is required to evaluate these issues.
Gas in the unsaturated zone is generally moist air, but it has higher CO2 concentrations than
atmospheric air because of plant root respiration and microbial degradation of organic compounds.
Oxygen concentrations are generally inversely related to CO2 concentrations because processes
producing CO2 generally deplete
