concepts, theory, solution methods and applications of inverse
problems in groundwater modeling. It is the first book devoted to
this subject. The inverse problem is defined and solved in both
deterministic and statistic frameworks. Various direct and indirect
methods are discussed and compared. As a useful tool, the adjoint
state method and its applications are given in detail. For a
stochastic field, the maximum likelihood estimation and co-kriging
techniques are used to estimate unknown parameters. The ill-posed
problem of inverse solution is highlighted through the whole book.
The importance of data collection strategy is specially emphasized.
Besides the classical design criteria, the relationships between
decision making, prediction, parameter identification and
experimental design are considered from the point of view of
extended identifiabilities. The problem of model structure
identification is also considered. This book can be used as a
textbook for graduate students majoring in hydrogeology or related
subjects. It is also a reference book for hydrogeologists,
petroleum engineers, environmental engineers, mining engineers and
applied mathematicians.
