Which of the following scenarios can be modeled mathematically?
  1. Flow of water through a watershed
  2. Migration of a pollutant through a groundwater aquifer
  3. Dispersion of particulates through the air
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answer: D - All of the scenarios listed can be modeled mathematically. With technology available today, engineers and planners are able to model the flow of water, migration of pollutants, and dispersion of particulates through air. Mathematical models can be built using specialized computer software linked to geographic information systems and real-time sampling equipment. These models can be used for predictive forecasting, planning, and mitigation purposes.
