Abstract
In the last decade or so finite element techniques have been applied with increased frequency to contaminant transport problems. Whereas most of the attention has focused on finite element approximations of spatial derivatives, standard finite difference techniques are generally used for approximation of the time derivative. Such an approach yields a scheme which is at best second order correct in time. In this study several higher order approximations of the time derivative are developed and analyzed using a finite difference approximation, and Galerkin‐type finite element approximations in conjunction with several sets of basis functions. Results obtained with the different schemes exhibit significant improvements in the numerical solution of the convective‐dispersive equation.

Solute transport in the subsurface is generally described quantitatively with the convection-dispersion transport equation. Accurate numerical solutions of this equation are important to ensure physically realistic predictions of contaminant transport in a variety of applications. An accurate third-
