Advancing measurements and representations of subsurface heterogeneity and dynamic processes: towards 4D hydrogeology

Abstract: Abstract. Essentially all hydrogeological processes are strongly influenced by the subsurface spatial heterogeneity and the temporal variation of environmental conditions, hydraulic properties, and solute concentrations. This spatial and temporal variability needs to be considered when studying hydrogeological processes in order to employ adequate mechanistic models or perform upscaling. The scale at which a hydrogeological system should be characterized in terms of its spatial heterogeneity and temporal dynam… Show more

“…Chapter 5: Groundwater-surface water interaction. The groundwater-surface water (GW-SW) exchange fluxes are driven by a complex interplay of subsurface processes and their interactions with surface hydrology (Hermans et al, 2022), which have a significant impact on the water and contaminant exchanges (e.g., Dujardin et al, 2014;Ghysels et al, 2021;Hermans et al, 2022;Irvine et al, 2016;Kikuchi and Ferré, 2017;Kurylyk et al, 2019;Moghaddam et al, 2022). Due to the complexity of these systems, the accurate estimation of GW-SW fluxes is important for quantitative hydrological studies and should be based on relevant data and careful experimental design.…”

“…Beven et al (2020) recognizes the need for improved observational technologies and network designs to support hypothesis testing in real catchments of interest that go beyond current monitoring capabilities, necessitating information from other studies as well as direct observations, remote sensing, intensive field campaigns, or other strategies. In a recent discussion about the future of hydrogeology, Hermans et al (2022) also advocate for the sharing of data in an open format. Quality.…”

“…Proper knowledge of the groundwater flow rate is vital to water resource management, contaminant control, hydraulic structure design, and shallow geothermal energy exploitation (Bense et al., 2016; Herrera‐García et al., 2021; Stauffer et al., 2019; Xue et al., 1990). Due to the diversity of hydraulic conditions and the often‐significant heterogeneity of aquifers, reliable estimation is only feasible by field investigation (Brunner et al., 2017; Hermans et al., 2022; Ye et al., 2004). Most commonly, flow meters or tracer tests are applied for direct measurement, or piezometers are used to determine the direction and rate of groundwater flow.…”
