Figure 20. Comparison of local cumulative frequency distributions (CFDs) derived from multiple indicator kriging (mIK) at two locations in Layer A, representing locations with low (location 1) and high (location 2) estimation variance. Median sediment contents (Z50) computed from the local CFDs are used to estimate horizontal and vertical hydraulic conductivity with equations 2 and 3. Local CFD probabilities for an 11 percent sediment threshold were used to estimate bulk hydraulic conductivities with equation 4.
