Performance of nonlinear time series models to simulate synthetic groundwater table time series from an unsaturated zone model

Transfer function noise (TFN) modelling is a form of time series analysis which regularly uses the recharge as a stress to explain the groundwater table fluctuations. Often the recharge flux is estimated as a linear combination of the precipitation and the (potential) evaporation. However, this is a simplification of the actual hydrological...

Modelling MSW Landfills With KNMI Radar Precipitation Data

The goal of this bachelor thesis is to compare different datasets of precipitation from the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute for the purpose of modelling municipal solid waste landfills. It is essential to develop after-care methods for landfills so the future generations do not have to cope with the burden of the emission potential of...
