Area of Science:

  • Hydrogeology
  • Geostatistics
  • Environmental Science

Background:

  • Stream-stage response tests (flooding tests) assess stream-aquifer properties at large scales.
  • Traditional models assume perpendicular flow, limiting application to heterogeneous systems.
  • Existing methods struggle with complex horizontal and vertical aquifer heterogeneity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and demonstrate a geostatistical inverse methodology for joint interpretation of stream-stage and pumping tests.
  • To overcome limitations of traditional models in heterogeneous stream-aquifer systems.
  • To improve the characterization of hydraulic properties in complex environments.

Main Methods:

  • Joint numerical interpretation of stream-stage response and pumping test data.
