Due to the long half-lives of the radionuclides contained in waste, a repository for high-level radioactive waste must safely contain them for long timescales, which include geological and climatic changes. For this reason, numerical groundwater models are developed in this work considering various climate processes and influences in relation to repository safety. Glaciers, permafrost, erosion, and sea level fluctuations will be considered and related to the geological situation in Germany.
This presentation deals with the question of which essential information about a repository for radioactive waste should be delivered to future generations to understand the repository system and support them to fulfill any needs related to the repository. Therefore, a procedure developed during a recent NEA initiative has been applied to the various numbers of records produced during the repository program Konrad. Different tools and approaches to identify essential records have been tested.
