Well Siting Using Geostatistical Analysis of Discrete Fracture Data. Part B.Geostatistical Analysis

摘要

The project attempts to use advanced statistical procedures to reliably locate,with high probability, zones for high-yielding wells in the Piedmont. In Part B, attempts were made to determine the spatial distributions of collected data on fractures in the crystalline rocks of the Piedmont using geostatistical methods. The geostatistical outcomes were then compared with available regional groundwater discharge information. The results of these comparisons provided a means to relate surficial fracture features to the probability of siting high yield wells.
