Mathematical models for management of groundwater quantity and quality at regional scale can be computationally impracticable for some applications. We have developed alternative modelling approaches that address this issue.
An associated area of research is the analysis of predictive uncertainty in mathematical models.
List of Projects:
- Eigenmodel approach to aquifer dynamics
- AquiferSim groundwater nitrate model
- Model predictive uncertainty
