Summary
The process of decision making to protect groundwater resources requires a detailed estimation of uncertainties in model predictions. Various uncertainties associated with model development, such as measurement and computational errors, uncertainties in the conceptual model and model-parameter estimates, simplifications in model setup and numerical representation of governing processes, influence the uncertainties in the model predictions.
