'Incorporating Parameter Uncertainty Into Historical Groundwater Contamination estimates'
Associate Professor Anna Michalak’s research group is developing new statistical and numerical methods to improve historical groundwater contaminant estimates, using approaches based on geostatistical inverse modeling. Until recently, no approaches used for solving this forensic problem could account for uncertainties in field conditions, while at the same time providing rigorous error bounds on the estimates of the historical contamination.
