      abstract = {The international Mont Terri rock laboratory in  Switzerland plays a central role in the safety and  construction of deep geological nuclear repositories in  clay formations. The laboratory has developed and refined a  range of new measurement and evaluation methods: it has  e.g. advanced the determination of rock parameters using  innovative borehole geophysics, improved the methodology  for characterizing pore-water and microbial activity in  claystones, and greatly improved our understanding of  diffusion and retention processes of radionuclides in and  through claystones. The methods and insights described in  this compendium can also be applied to low-permeability  rocks at various sites around the globe, and in other  fields of application.},
