Mathematical Challenges in Groundwater Contaminant Modeling

Abstract

The use of computer models to simulate groundwater flow and contaminant transport has burgeoned in the past few years. There are good reasons for this phenomenon: Natural aquifers tend to have complicated geometries and highly variable rock properties, and there is a pressing societal need for quantitative predictions of contaminant movements in these complex geologic settings. Computer models offer the only realistic hope for meeting this need.
