Specialty Services

Specialty modeling services include the use of: (1) parameter-estimation software to predict unmeasured or uncertain data, (2) probabilistic analyses to quantify the accuracy of predicted answers, (3) finite-element and fracture models for complex geology, (4) DNAPL and LNAPL models to assess source area cleanup, and (5) optimization models to reduce costs of hydraulic containment.
