An intermediate-scale experiment in a 1.02-m-long, 0.75-m-high, and 0.05-m-wide flow cell was conducted to investigate the behavior of a viscous LNAPL under variable water table conditions. Two viscous LNAPL volumes (0.4 L) were released, one week apart, from a small source zone on top of the flow c...
