Effectiveness of hydraulic tomography: Sandbox experiments

Abstract: [1] Two sandbox experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of a sequential geostatistical inverse approach for hydraulic tomography in characterizing aquifer heterogeneity. One sandbox was packed with layered sands to represent a stratified aquifer, while the other was packed with discontinuous sand bodies of different shapes and sizes to represent a more complex and realistic heterogeneous aquifer. Parallel to the sandbox experiments, numerical experiments were conducted to assess the effects of m… Show more

“…HT has been applied to joint unconfined and vadose zone flow problems (Mao et al, 2013) and for both 2-D (two-dimensional) ) and 3-D settings (Cardiff et al, 2012;Illman et al, 2009;Berg and Illman, 2013). A number of sandbox laboratory experiments have been performed to validate HT methods off-site (Liu, 2002;Liu et al, 2007;Illman et al, 2010), which have deemed HT a promising technique for characterizing aquifer properties at high resolution. For instance, Illman et al (2010) compared various approaches to characterize the K field using a sandbox and found that HT consistently outperformed kriging interpolation of smallscale K measurements.…”
