Abstract:

Accurate identification of the parameters of groundwater flow and transport model (inverse problem) is mandatory in order to obtain reliable predictions (forward problem). Unfortunately inverse problems are seldom well-posed; in this paper we review the properties of the forward and inverse problems, in order to discuss some concepts related to the uniqueness and stability of the inverse problem.
