Water quality modeling: A review of the analysis of uncertainty

M.B. Beck
TL;DR: A review of the role of uncertainty in the identification of mathematical models of water quality and in the application of these models to problems of prediction can be found in this paper, where four problem areas are examined in detail: uncertainty about model structure, uncertainty in estimated model parameter values, the propagation of prediction errors, and the design of experiments in order to reduce the critical uncertainties associated with a model.
