Estimating Regional Hydraulic Conductivity Fields—A Comparative Study of Geostatistical Methods

Zoning hydraulic conductivity using different geostatistical methods (Case study Shavoor)

In studies of irrigation and drainage projects for drainage, it is necessary to extend the data from the sampling point to the network. Therefore, based on available data from observational wells, estimating the state of hydraulic conductivity (K) in the surrounding area. The estimation process values for locations where there is no information for them based on viewing areas called wells spati...

Estimating Hydraulic Conductivity Using Pedotransfer Functions

Hydraulic conductivity profiling with direct push methods

Spatial variations in hydraulic conductivity (K) are a primary control on contaminant movement in groundwater, but characterization of these variations has proven difficult. Over the last two decades, significant progress has been made in utilizing Direct Push (DP) technology to characterize K variations in unconsolidated settings. Profiling methods have been developed based on empirical correl...

Scale-Dependent Pedotransfer Functions Reliability for Estimating Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity

Saturated hydraulic conductivity Ksat is a fundamental characteristic in modeling flow and contaminant transport in soils and sediments. Therefore, many models have been developed to estimate Ksat from easily measureable parameters, such as textural properties, bulk density, etc. However, Ksat is not only affected by textural and structural characteristics, but also by sample dimensions e.g., i...

Determination chlorine of groundwater with electrical conductivity by Geostatistical methods (Case study of drinking water wells Mashhad)

Information on chlorine concentration in groundwater for drinking and agriculture is important. If theconcentration of this element is in too much water can cause problems for humans and is toxic toplants. Measurement of chloride in groundwater is extensive, costly and time consuming. Find easyand inexpensive method has a special importance. the Statistical methods are based on spatialvariables...
