An Effective Kalman Filter-Based Method for Groundwater Pollution Source Identification and Plume Morphology Characterization

The identification of unknown groundwater pollution sources and the characterization of pollution plume remains a challenging problem. In this study, we addressed this problem by a linked simulation-optimization approach. This approach couples a contaminant transport simulation model with a Kalman f...
