Abstract
This research monograph presents the modelling of solute transport in the saturated porous media using novel stochastic and computational approaches. Our previous book published in the North-Holland series of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics (Kulasiri and Verwoerd 2002) covers some of our research in an introductory manner; this book can be considered as a sequel to it, but we include most of the basic concepts succinctly here, suitably placed in the main body so that the reader who does not have the access to the previous book is not disadvantaged to follow the material presented.
