Zusammenfassung

Groundwater extraction for drinking water and irrigation purposes and the cultivation of soil for farming are considered among the most important uses of the natural subsurface. As such, there is a need for sustainable management of soil and groundwater resources. This, however, requires detailed knowledge of the hydraulic properties of soils and aquifers such as hydraulic conductivity, soil moisture content, etc. Although direct in-situ measurements are possible, relying only on such techniques to characterize the spatial variability of the properties is expensive. Hence, in-situ mea...
