Quality of Ground Water: Guidelines for Selection and Application of Frequently Used Models

Abstract

  • Prepared by the Task Committee on Contaminated Ground Water Modeling of the Committee on Ground Water Quality of the Environmental Engineering Division of ASCE.

    Quality of Ground Water assesses widely used models of contaminated ground water. Based on a survey of the professional community to determine which models are in frequent use, the models were classified according to a unified set of criteria. The Manual presents guidelines for the application of the models that include the capabilities and limitations of each model.
