Abstract
The extended Kalman filtering (EKF) method is used as an automatic cal ibration procedure for the estimation of hydrogeological parameters ba sed on groundwater head observation. The numerical tool employed is th e dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM). Numerical results for steady and unsteady flow in heterogeneous aquifers have demonstrat ed the potential of this combined procedure for groundwater applicatio ns. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
