Abstract

This paper attempts to contribute to the fluid dynamics knowledge on the migration of chloroform, and other related volatile organic constituents, in ground‐water systems, and to complement the existing qualitative information with the development and analysis of quantitative models. Two exploratory models are developed and tested as to their ability to reproduce the limited historical information on the evolution of the contaminant concentration in the unsaturated and saturated zones of the alluvial aquifer in Louisville, Kentucky. The model's development and an uncertainty analysis originating from measurement errors, model assumptions, nonpoint source distribution, and computational approximations, are conducted using recent contributions to the theory of stochastic partial differential equations.
