• Evaluation of the representative elementary volume (REV) of a fractured geothermal sandstone reservoir 

      Müller, Christian; Siegesmund, Siegfried; Blum, PhilippORCIDiD (Environmental Earth Sciences, 2010)
      The objective of this study is to evaluate a representative elementary volume (REV) in a fractured geothermal sandstone reservoir in Germany using the discrete fracture network (DFN) model approach. Due to the lack of in ...
    • Future-proofing hydrogeology by revising groundwater monitoring practice 

      Rau, Gabriel C.ORCIDiD; Cuthbert, Mark O.; Post, Vincent E. A.ORCIDiD; Schweizer, DanielORCIDiD; Acworth, R. Ian; Andersen, Martin S.; Blum, PhilippORCIDiD; Carrara, Elisabetta; Rasmussen, Todd C.; Ge, Shemin (Hydrogeology Journal, 2020-10-01)
      Groundwater is an important global resource and its sustainable use faces major challenges. New methods and advances in computational science could lead to much improved understanding of groundwater processes and subsurface ...
    • Quantification of Fracture Roughness by Change Probabilities and Hurst Exponents 

      Gutjahr, TimORCIDiD; Hale, Sina; Keller, Karsten; Blum, PhilippORCIDiD; Winter, Steffen (Mathematical Geosciences, 2021-12-17)
      The objective of the current study is to utilize an innovative method called “change probabilities” for describing fracture roughness. In order to detect and visualize anisotropy of rock joint surfaces, the roughness of ...
    • Retrospective evaluation of landslide susceptibility maps and review of validation practice 

      Fleuchaus, Paul; Blum, PhilippORCIDiD; Wilde, Martina; Terhorst, Birgit; Butscher, ChristophORCIDiD (Environmental Earth Sciences, 2021-07-21)
      Despite the widespread application of landslide susceptibility analyses, there is hardly any information about whether or not the occurrence of recent landslide events was correctly predicted by the relevant susceptibility ...
