Several methods are available for integrating geophysical, geological, and remote sensing data sets and also for integrating them with additional information such as newly observed geophysical and geological data. Several published reports discuss successful application of different types of spatial information integration techniques including the geographical information system (GIs). There ha...

Understanding how hydrological and biogeochemical properties change over space and time in response to remedial treatments is hindered by our ability to monitor these processes with sufficient resolution and over field relevant scales. Here, we explored the use of geophysical approaches for monitoring the spatiotemporal distribution of hydrological and biogeochemical transformations associated ...

Geophysical measurements increasingly are being used in hydrologic field stud-­­ ies because of their ability to provide high-­­resolution images of the subsurface. In particular, tomographic imaging methods can produce maps of physical property distributions that have significant potential to improve subsurface characteriza-­­ tion and enhance monitoring of hydrologic processes. In the tomogra...

Motivated by ongoing efforts to understand the nature and the energy potential of geothermal resources, we devise a coupled numerical model (hydrological, thermal, mechanical), which may help in the characterization and monitoring of hydrothermal systems through computational experiments. Hydrothermal areas in volcanic regions arise from a unique combination of geological and hydrological featu...

Hydrogeologists have long been interested in using geophysical measurements to answer questions about the Earth. Originally used to find ore bodies or oil and gas, geophysics’ sensitivity to water was originally considered a nuisance. While looking for metallic ore using electricalinduced polarization, for instance, early geophysicists found that groundwater controlled most of the measured sign...

Different geophysical surveys have a specific sensitivity to geological targets, determined by the physical nature of the observed geophysical field, the design of the data acquisition system, and the configuration and type of the source of the recorded data. The sensitivity is usually limited to some part of the examined geological formation, located relatively close to the sensors. This paper...

A stochastic Bayesian approach for combining well logs and geophysical surveys for enhancing subsurface characterization is presented. The main challenge we face is in creating the bridge to link between ambiguously related geophysical surveys and well data. The second challenge is imposed by the disparity between the scale of the geophysical survey and the scale of the well logs. Our approach ...
