Steady shape analysis of tomographic pumping tests for characterization of aquifer heterogeneities

Abstract: [1] Hydraulic tomography, a procedure involving the performance of a suite of pumping tests in a tomographic format, provides information about variations in hydraulic conductivity at a level of detail not obtainable with traditional well tests. However, analysis of transient data from such a suite of pumping tests represents a substantial computational burden. Although steady state responses can be analyzed to reduce this computational burden significantly, the time required to reach steady state will often b… Show more

“…However, obtaining a high-spatial resolution by hydraulic tomographic investigation is still accompanied by relative complex analysis [Bohling et al, 2002], partly high-computational costs, and relative long pumping times.…”
