Abstract
The modified advection dispersion equation (MADE) model is compared to the transient storage model (TSM) and fractional advection dispersion equation (FRADE) model for modeling riverine transport. The comparisons are illustrated using field examples. The parameter F of the FRADE model is found to be inconsistent to its physical meaning and is unrelated to dead zone fraction. Also, the estimated parameters of TSM are found to be inconsistent to their physical meaning. On the contrary, the parameters of MADE are consistent and related to the dead zone fraction. It is observed that the MADE model is easy to use and yields reliable and consistent results.
