Analysis of water flow paths: Methodology and example calculations for a potential geological repository in Sweden
Article Abstract:
Modeling methodology, data integration and the resulting water flow models that focus on the quaternary deposits and the upper 150 m of the bedrock is discussed. It is shown how the Geographical Information System-based modeling can be used to limit the number of surface flow paths that are needed to be characterized for safety assessment.

Marine ecosystem modeling beyond the box: Using GIS to study carbon fluxes in a coastal ecosystem
Article Abstract:
An intermediate approach based on a high-resolution geographical information system data-grid was developed for the coastal ecosystem in the Laxemar area grounded on many different site investigations. It was seen that in inner areas Benthic processes had a similar or larger influence on carbon fluxes as advective processes.
