Description

The translation of raw tracer data into parameters that represent the physico-chemical behaviour of the studied component is a common approach to understand and generalize results from a tracer study. This paper covers aspects of tracer data interpretation including tracer mass balance, travel time distribution, transport parameters, decoupling of tracer and water flows, modelling flow and non-conservative tracers and how to determine model parameters from tracer data.
