Objectives
1. To develop the Poshan drainage system into a unique critical zone observatory in a hillslope of volcanic rock under human impact and changing climate 2. To investigate the temporospatial characteristics of hydrogeochemistry and dynamics of groundwater flow and solute transport in the system 3. To explore the modifications of the hillslope groundwater flow and chemistry achieved by the tunnel system and their ecological and engineering implications.
