New Approach to Assess Uncertainty in Predictions from Reactive Transport Models
A multi-institutional team of scientists developed a new sensitivity analysis framework using Bayesian Networks to quantify which parameters and processes in complex multi-physics models are least understood.
Multi-omics Data are Key to Advancing Reactive Transport Models
Reactive transport models (RTMs) are used to describe and predict the distribution of chemicals in time and space, in both marine and terrestrial (surface and near-surface) environments where microbially-mediated processes govern...
New Model Shows Hydrologic Exchange Flow in Large Rivers Mostly Determined by Subsurface Hydrogeology
Hydrologic exchange flows (HEFs) increase the contact between river water and subsurface sediments thereby playing a critical role in biogeochemical and ecological functions along river corridors.
New Model to Predict Hydrologic Exchange Fluxes at River Reach Scale
Hydrologic exchange fluxes (HEFs) between rivers and surrounding subsurface environments strongly influence water temperatures and biogeochemical processes. Yet, quantitative measures of their effects on the strength and direction of such e
