Short summary
Permeability is a crucial hydraulic parameter extensively utilized in groundwater research. Until now, permeability has only been determined using borehole experiments. However, conventional approaches possess numerous limitations and still cannot estimate permeability at large depths. This research uses geophysical methods for the first time to assess 2D and 3D permeability across extensive areas at significant depths in extremely heterogeneous hard rock.
