“…Advancements in the above areas are supported by numerical, laboratory, and field experiments [e.g., Rubin , 1995; Yeh and Liu , 2000; Cardiff et al , 2009; Pollock and Cirpka , 2010; Sudicky et al , 2010]. In particular, field experiments in various hydrological and geological contexts, at various scales, and with various survey strategies, are essential to better understand flow and transport processes, validate and improve modeling approaches, and guide novel developments [e.g., Sudicky , 1986; Ptak and Schmid , 1996; Illman et al , 2009; Cvetkovic et al , 2010; Brauchler et al , 2011]. Such field experiments commonly include variations on tracer tests, multiwell pumping or injection tests, and single‐well slug or flowmeter tests or direct‐push profiles [e.g., Hyndman and Gorelick , 1996; Brauchler et al , 2003; Doherty , 2003; Zhu and Yeh , 2005; Cardiff et al , 2011].…”
