TL;DR: The results highlight the benefit of a dynamic monitoring process and analysis of well demarcated groundwater bodies to update the associated NBLs as a function of the temporal dependence of natural processes occurring in the subsurface.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the uncertainty associated with the prediction of the location of the outer boundary of well catchment at the "Lauswiesen" site is significantly affected by the conceptual model adopted to incorporate the heterogeneous nature of the aquifer domain in a predictive framework.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the environmentally critical As concentrations detected in some aquifers in the Emilia-Romagna Region are consistent with the occurrence of high natural As content in the component of the host porous medium associated with vegetal matter.

TL;DR: In this paper, a probabilistic reconstruction of boundaries between geologic facies using random domain decomposition (RDD) has been proposed to quantify uncertainty in flow simulations when both the geologic makeup of a porous medium and its hydraulic parameters are under-specified by data.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the requirements for the establishment of probabilistic source protection zones, the practical use of stochastic methods in their delineation, and the use of data-assimilation for uncertainty reduction.
