“…Numerous papers address the hydrogeological conceptualisation using hydrofacies: e.g. in glacial melt water-stream sediment and till (Anderson, 1989), buried valley aquifers (Ritzi et al, 2000); and alluvial fan depositional systems (Weissmann and Fogg, 1999). Comprehensive reviews and compilations of this issue can be found in e.g.…”

“…Fogg (1996 and) present a transition probability geostatistical framework that can be conditioned to hard as well as soft data in simulating hydrofacies distributions. There are several examples on application which include simulation of alluvial fan systems (Fogg et al, 1998;Weissmann et al, 1999;Weissmann and Fogg, 1999), river valley aquifer systems (Ritzi et al, 1994;Ritzi et al, 2000), Quaternary aquifer complex (Troldborg et al, 2007 1 ) and sandlenses distribution within glacial till in (Sminchak et al, 1996;Petersen et al, 2004). Neuman and Wieranga (2002) present a generic strategy that embodies a systematically and comprehensive multiple conceptual model approach, including hydrogeological conceptualisation, model development and predictive uncertainty analysis.…”

“…To fully characterize the geostatistical models for the log conductivity, Y = ln K, parameters such as the mean hY i, the variance s Y 2 , and the horizontal (I Y,h ) and vertical (I Y,v ) integral scales need to be determined. In many cases, more complex structures need to be identified [Ritzi et al, 2000]. Inferring such parameters is a challenging task, often requiring a large number of measurements at a prohibitive cost.…”

“…However sedimentology studies [see e.g. Miall, 1996;Ritzi et al, 1995Ritzi et al, , 2000Ritzi and Allen-King, 2007] have shown that unconsolidated sedimentary formations are much more complex with the spatial variability of hydraulic conductivity dominated by the intertwined arrangement of hydrofacies, i.e. geological facies with contrasting hydraulic properties.…”

“…Furthermore, since lithological data are typically more abundant than hydraulic conductivity measurements, with relatively few conductivity data it is still possible to characterize at least the large-scale geological features of the formation. For example, Ritzi et al [2000] showed that spatial variability of permeability in a buriedvalley aquifer follows a bimodal distribution. Furthermore, a bimodal field is much more suitable than a Gaussian field for capturing the spatial organization of interconnected high-conductivity zones, which constitutes the backbones through which solute propagates as preferential pathways [Zinn and Harvey, 2003].…”
