Using inverse modeling to estimate parameter values for three dimensional transport of contaminants in Lake Ontario

<p>The Great Lakes form an important freshwater drinking source for many urban areas surrounding the Lakes but also provide a sink for pollutants and runoff. Consequently introducing new drinking water intakes into any of these water bodies requires investigation into local pollutant sources and their transport in order to determine the most appropriate location and depth of any new intake. Two methods involving the calibration of a 3D wind …
