Soil moisture estimation using tomographic ground penetrating radar in a MCMC–Bayesian framework

Abstract: In this study, we focus on a hydrogeological inverse problem specifically targeting monitoring soil moisture variations using tomographic ground penetrating radar (GPR) travel time data. Technical challenges exist in the inversion of GPR tomographic data for handling non-uniqueness, nonlinearity and high-dimensionality of unknowns. We have developed a new method for estimating soil moisture fields from crosshole GPR data. It uses a pilot-point method to provide a lowdimensional representation of the relative d… Show more

“…Metropolis‐within‐Gibbs sampling (Bao et al., 2018) is used (see Section 2.3) to generate realizations of H 0 , denoted as boldHbold0(β), from the posterior distribution. Then, the posterior mean and posterior variance are respectively calculated using the equations μHi|boldHboldd,S=1Nzβ=1NzHi(β), σHi|boldHboldd,S2=1Nzβ=1Nz(Hi(β)μHi|boldHboldd,S)2, where N z is the total number of realizations.…”

“…The capability of SAChES to invoke a large number of chains simultaneously has its obvious attraction in high-dimensional inversions, i.e., when a gridded field, rather than a few model parameters, has to be estimated. Some studies have begun to explore whether SAChES could be used to estimate saturation fields using ground penetrating radar measurements, as well as to estimate saturation and porosity fields using seismic and electromagnetic response observations (Bao et al, 2016), with potential applications to highly spatially resolved models such as the coupling between CLM and the reactive transport code PFLOTRAN (Hammond et al, 2014).…”
