Deat CXTFIT, I have measurements of bromide at depths from a field solute transport experiment at various times. I would like to use CXTFIT and choose the inverse approach to estimate v and D. I wonder if you can recommend how to best make initial estimates for parameters of v, D, etc..? Do I need to estimate for mu and omega as well? and which ones should they be fitted? I have to run it in the deterministic mode and cannot get a solution if I use the stochastic CDE option. Maybe I have selected the wrong boundary value condition or the wrong nonequilibrium code. What do suggest that I check?
Regards, J |

Jack:Please have a look at projects (Fig73, 74, 79) in the workspace, Inverse. Explanations for these projects are described in the CXTFIT manual(p.89-91, 98-100). If any further questions, please let me know. Nobuo

Nubuo, Thank-you for your reply. However, I still do not feel certain how to estimate initial values. In Fig 79b there were initial estimates made, but then there are no final values given for v or D. In this example, it was only beta and omega that were fitted. Consequently, the Table 7.2 on page 100 has the same values for v, D, ù and R, there are only different initial values for â for the two parameter estimation in part (a) and in Part (b). Is it necessary to choose a model (like Fig 79) that requires v, D, R, â and ù? Indeed for Fig 74 the parameters initially estimated are v, D, R and mu.
For my own data (Bromide conc. (ppm) vs. depth) I am not sure that my initial estimate for R and Mu (or v or D for that matter) are correct (or good estimates). Having guessed at some initial values, I am uncertain about the following:
Parameter estimate constraints
 1. Is it better to select no constraints for parameter estimation OR is it better to set a min and max value? Type of model The use of a stochastic (e.g. stream tube ) mode of the CDE. I would have assumed that theoretically field observations of bromide would be better modelled using stochastic CDE. However, I’m not sure whether to accept the estimates from the stochastic CDE model or from the deterministic CDE. In the case of the stochastic CDE it is necessary to make initial estimates for quite a number of parameters: Kd, Mu, sigma v, sigma Kd, sigmas D, ñvKd, ñè and I am not sure that I have selected the right values. For the deterministic CDE I have the following output: RSquare for regression of observed vs predicted =-.48429771 Mean square for error (MSE) = .1956E+06 V = 2.13E+01, D = 1.00E-02 For the stochastic CDE I have the following output: RSquare for regression of observed vs predicted =-.48538460 Mean square for error (MSE) = .1958E+06 V= 7.89E+00, D = 1.00E-03 For both cases I had used a Dirac delta input , mass = 29.7500
 2.Can you please suggest to me how to decide whether I use the estimates for v and D from the deterministic CDE or the stochastic CDE? or is it possible to consider both models?
Regards, Jack
N.B. If you are interested the data I used are given below: Depth Bromide concentration (cm) (ppm) 5 829.6 10 672.8 15 175.4 25 62.6 35 11.9 50 2.0 70 0.5 90 0.0

Jack I guess you are confused regarding transport models (CDE and MIM). Please carefully read soil physics textbooks such as Jury and Hillel. Do not use the stochastic CDE until you understand the deterministic models.
Regarding Fig. 7.9, as stated in p.98, v and D were determined from the nonreactive 3H2O (Fig 7.9(a)). D and theta/theta_m are assumed to be identical for boron and 3H2O. I think Kd was independently determined from the adsorption experiment (see, van Genuchten, 1974)
In Fig.7.4 , v and D are estimated (R and mu are fixed).
If any further questions regarding CXTFIT after studying these transport models, please let me know.
Nobuo

Dear Group
I am doing study on the effect of olive mill waste water on soil transport properties under un saturated condtions. I did a leaching experiment using inert tracer (Br) for 10 days and I took samples to measure Br. I want to draw BTCs and calculate D and V using STANMOD. I tried many times but no good fitting to the original data.
