Advection and dispersion in time and space

Previous work showed how moving particles that rest along their trajectory lead to time-nonlocal advection–dispersion equations. If the waiting times have infinite mean, the model equation contains a fractional time derivative of order between 0 and 1. In this article, we develop a new advection–dispersion equation with an additional fractional time derivative of order between 1 and 2. Solutions to the equation are obtained by subordination. The form of the time derivative is related to the probability distribution of particle waiting times and the subordinator is given as the first passage time density of the waiting time process which is computed explicitly.
