Short summary
This study presents a methodology for understanding heterogeneity in alluvial aquifers by combining borehole data, electrical resistivity tomography, and stochastic modeling. The approach uses hydrofacies to incorporate spatial variability into groundwater models. The hydrofacies distribution helps define hydraulic conductivity fields, essential for groundwater flow and contaminant transport simulations, providing a valuable tool for sustainable aquifer management in sedimentary environments.
