Hello
<u><i>my second question is: </i></u>
When I put pulse input as a boundary condition, I require also adjusting the application time of the pulse input,
Because if i don’t do that, the model underestimate the BTC observed.
I send to u my project folder
My experiment is as follow:
I applied an average of 0.61mm of water of 73g/l of bromide (45g/m2); the period of the experiment was 57days; the average transport velocity was about 0.5cm/day
My question is:

Thanks a lot
question about pulse input
Meha:
As stated in the previous topic with Tina, it is necessary to have proper mass recovery in the concentration measurements (BTC or rofile) for a proper parameter estimation. In your case, total amount of solutes observed at 57d is 8.16 mg/cm2 based on the area of the solute profile.

sum 8.159840525 (g/l)*cm
-> 8.16 mg/cm2
---------------
The input mass is 73 g/l*0.061cm=4.459mg/cm2 (<8.16). Since the observed mass is greater than the input mass, it would be difficult to have a proper estimation.
However, I tried to include the total mass in the estimation for a delta input and a pulse input.
For a delta input, the initial estimate for m_b/v was (4.459 mg/cm2) / (0.5 cm/d).
For a pulse input, the initial estimate for the duration time was 0.061cm/ 0.5cm/d = 0.122 d.
When I estimated D & v for the CDE, the results were almost identical in both cases and the adjusted mass in the soil profile was 7.38 mg/cm2.
Although I am very skeptical to the estimated parameter values, I confirm the program works well at least for the mass estimation.
If you want, I will send you the CXTFIT projects.

Dear
can u explain to me please me also how have u integrated the observed mass in the profile?
doesn't we need to multiply the concentration by the volumetric water content of each depth to integrate the observed mass in the profile (conc*height of each depth* Ovol)

Maha: I use the trapezoidal rule. For example. for 2.5<z<7.5,
(0.0493005+0.116744)*(7.5-2.5)/2=0.41511125
Note that since g/l = mg/cm3, the unit of the area is
mg/cm3*cm= mg/cm2.
z conc g/l area
2.5 0.0493005
7.5 0.116744 0.41511125
The input mass is c*water flux*t =c*v*theta*t. The mass in the soil profile is integral c*theta dz. When theta is constant, theta can be canceled out, i.e., c*v*t = Integral c dz. Nobuo
