The pseudo-experimental data (A) without measurement noises, (B) with measurement noises, and the simulated results with the 13 parameters estimated using the stochastic ranking evolutionary strategies. A, A1, and A2 represent the parent compound and its two metabolites, respectively.

Experimental breakthrough curve data from the column filled with iron fillings coated with copper for the intermediate flow rates presented by Casey and imnek (2001). The solid lines represent the inverse model solutions using the stochastic ranking evolutionary strategies (SRESs), and the dash lines represent the results obtained using HYDRUS-1D.
