We define model-data interaction (MDI) as a two way process between models and data, in which on one hand data can serve the modeling purpose by supporting model …
Geostatistical optimal design optimizes subsurface exploration for maximum information toward task‐specific prediction goals. Until recently, most geostatistical design studies have …

Linearized representations of the stochastic groundwater flow and transport equations have been heavily used in hydrogeology, eg, for geostatistical inversion or generating conditional …
The evolution of groundwater quality in natural and contaminated aquifers is affected by complex interactions between physical transport and biogeochemical reactions. Identifying …

Incorporating hydro (geo) logical data, such as head and tracer data, into stochastic models of (subsurface) flow and transport helps to reduce prediction uncertainty. Because of …
Choosing between competing models lies at the heart of scientific work, and is a frequent motivation for experimentation. Optimal experimental design (OD) methods maximize the …

Most field campaigns aim at helping in specified scientific or practical tasks, such as modeling, prediction, optimization, or management. Often these tasks involve binary …

In this study, we assess probability density functions of hydraulic heads and specific discharges in three‐dimensional bounded heterogeneous porous media by Monte Carlo …
The initial width of contaminant plumes is known to have a key influence on expected plume development, dispersion and travel time statistics. In past studies, initial plume width has …
