متن کاملSpatial Inference of Nitrate Concentrations in Groundwater
We develop a method for multi-scale estimation of pollutant concentrations, based on a nonparametric spatial statistical model. We apply this method to estimate nitrate concentrations in groundwater over the mid-Atlantic states, using measurements gathered during a period of ten years. A map of the fine-scale estimated nitrate concentration is obtained, as well as maps of the estimated county-l...
