The assessment of the vulnerability to pollution/contamination of natural mineral water is of maximum importance for long term exploitation of such a specific aquifer. A physically-based approach on the vulnerability should be based on three factors describing a pollution event, which are, the contaminant transfer time from the hazard location to the protected 'target', the level of contaminant concentration potentially reaching the 'target' and the contamination duration at the 'target' [1]. The main purpose of t...
