Abstract: Kriging, a geostatistical technique, can be used to obtain the best (minimum estimation error), linear, unbiased estimates of contaminant concentrations at points within a contaminant plume from a set of measured contaminant ...

Abstract: This paper presents an application of the procedures developed in the first paper in this series (Cooper and Istok 1988) to measured values of groundwater contaminants at the Chem‐Dyne toxic waste site located in Hamilton, ...

Abstract: This paper presents an introduction for the nonspecialist to the use of geostatistics to estimate and map contaminant concentrations and estimation errors in a groundwater plume from a set of measured contaminant concentrations. ...

Abstract: Measurements of physical and chemical solute transport properties of soil/waste systems are necessary to predict pollutant migration in soils. The sorption distribution coefficient is most often determined in the laboratory ...
