Short summary
Contamination from fuel constituents poses a major threat to groundwater. However, studies devoted to identification of the driving parameters for fuel derivative transport in soils are scarce, and none have dealt with heterogeneous layered media. Here, we performed global sensitivity analysis (GSA) on a model of benzene transport to groundwater. The results identified the parameters controlling benzene transport in soils and showed that GSA is as an important tool for transport model analysis.
