Abstract

Steady-state piezometric head data have always been regarded as containing only information about the major patterns of variability of hydraulic conductivity, but not about specific features, such as channels, or local scale heterogeneity. We have attempted to characterize a channeled aquifer using only steady-state piezometric head without success. However, in a companion paper, we demonstrate how transient piezometric head data can be used to characterize a bimodal aquifer for which no prior information on the aquifer spatial heterogeneity is available using a localized version of the normal-score ensemble Kalman filter.
