Laboratory determined suction potential of Topopah Spring tuff at high temperatures

Conference ·
OSTI ID:137989

The purpose of this work is to experimentally determine the capillary suction potential of Topopah Spring tuff from Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada. This data can be used to help characterize the unsaturated hydraulic properties of the densely welded tuff at this site. 7 refs., 4 figs., 1 tab.
