Publisher's Synopsis
This peer-reviewed proceedings volume consists of 30 papers presented at the ""Probabilistic Approaches & Groundwater Modeling"" symposium during the 2003 EWRI World Congress held June 24-26 in Philadelphia. Sponsored by the ASCE Groundwater Quality technical committee, the symposium brought together researchers and practitioners to discuss state-of-the art techniques for dealing with uncertainty in groundwater modeling and management problems. The papers cover a broad range of topics including Monte Carlo simulation and its variants, geostatistical modeling approaches, groundwater management under uncertainty, uncertainty propagation methods, stochastic modeling applications, and computational tools and techniques. The book will appeal to modelers and decision-makers interested in groundwater-related applications of probabilistic approaches.
