1 Kinematic Porosity and Heteroscedasticity in Hard Rock Terrains Extreme variability and its role in hydrogeology Land and Water Resources Engineering Robert Earon

2 Changing Climate Limited Storage Increasing residency near coast Heteroscedasticity There is no annual shortage of water in Sweden. Problems arise due to temporal distribution of meteoric water and water storage. Glacial Till Hard Rock IntroductionPossibilitiesHeterogeneityAnistropyConcluding Remarks

13 Kinematic Porosity Based on simple fracture geometry (Carlsson and Olsson, 1993) Relationship between fracture spacing, relation to measurement face, average angle between fractures, average estimated hydraulic aperture Relatively simple to collect data Influenced by surficial physical factors (weathering) IntroductionPossibilitiesHeterogeneityAnistropyConcluding Remarks

15 Kinematic porosity maps correlated to specific capacity maps (sig. = 0.003) but have a very low correlation coefficient (0.2) IntroductionPossibilitiesHeterogeneityAnistropyConcluding Remarks

16 Review Heterogeneity places a high burden on point estimates for regional or even local characterization Heterogenic, anisotropic variability implies caution should be taken when applying statistical tools From the standpoint of limited-resource hydrogeological investigation, plausibility of applying and developing other tools IntroductionPossibilitiesHeterogeneityAnistropyConcluding Remarks
