Hydraulic tomography (HT) is a promising technique for high-resolution imaging of subsurface heterogeneity, which addresses the limitations of traditional methods, such as borehole drilling and geophysical surveys. This study focuses on the application of HT to detect and characterize fractured zones in bedrock and addresses the gap in the understanding of the role of distributed flux data in the joint inversion of hydraulic head and flux data. By conducting synthetic injection tests and using sequential successive linear estimators for inversion, the study explores the effectiveness of combining limited head data with distributed temperature sensing (A-DTS)-derived flux data. The findings highlight the fact that integrating flux data significantly enhances the accuracy of identifying fracture permeability characteristics, even when head data is sparse. This approach not only improves the resolution of hydraulic conductivity fields but also offers a cost-effective strategy for practical field applications. The results underscore the potential of HT to enhance our understanding of groundwater flow and contaminant transport in fractured media, which has important implications for carbon capture, enhanced geothermal systems, and radioactive waste disposal.
