  Information - HS5 Partial differential equations of hydrology (co-listed in NP)

Event Information
Physically-based models in ground and surface water hydrology are usually founded on partial differential equations, which express mass, momentum, energy conservation principles with mathematical formalism.
The goal of this session is to provide a common place of discussion for mathematicians and hydrologists, who can share results on forward and inverse problems for the partial differential equations that correspond to specific forms of the continuity equation. Contributions about numerical problems and new numerical techniques of solution are also welcome.
Among the others, the following paradigmatic equations will be considered: the Saint-Venant equation for channel flow, the Richards equation for unsaturated ground water flow, the balance equation for time-dependent three-dimensional saturated flow in anisotropic and heterogeneous porous media, the convective-advective transport equations for conservative and reactive contaminant transport.
