Tracking Contaminant Transport Backwards with an Operator-Splitting Method
Tracking Contaminant Transport Backwards with an Operator-Splitting Method
Recovering the past movement of a contaminant plume from measurements of its current values is a challenging problem in hydrology. Moreover, modeling the movement of a contaminant plume backwards is an ill-posed problem due to the unstable and non-unique nature of the resulting solution. Therefore, standard numerical methods become unstable, …
