Evaluating the hydraulic conductivity at three different scales within an unconfined sand aquifer at Lachenaie, Quebec
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents the evaluation of scale effects for the hydraulic conductivity, k, of a sand. Data were obtained using several methods at a site that was densely instrumented with piezometers within an area of about 100 m × 100 m. The 3.13.6 m thick sand deposit rests on a thick, nonfissured Champlain Sea clay deposit. At the small scale, local k values were obtained from the grain-size curves of sand samples and also from ground-penetrating radar surveys. At the intermediate scale, k values were obtained from field variable-head tests using piezometers. At the large scale, k values were obtained from pumping-test drawdowns in steady-state conditions. In this sand aquifer, the careful evaluations at three scales gave similar narrow distributions for the hydraulic conductivity, and therefore no scale effect is evidenced.Key words: hydraulic conductivity, sand, scale effect, gradation, monitoring well, pumping.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
