Abstract:

Monitoring ground water and subsurface remedial actions for chemicals such as tritium at sites such as Argonne National Laboratory is an important area of environmental engineering research. The Department of Energy and other federal agencies are making significant investment in the development of field analytical techniques, nonintrusive technologies, and sensor technologies that will impact the way environmental monitoring is conducted. We present a hierarchical space-time model to integrate sources of process knowledge at a site, including geological data, measurements collected during routine groundwater monitoring, and scientific understanding.
