| Abstract: | Abstract. This paper presents a computer program for generating two-dimensional fields of autocorrelated parameters. The program is written for parameters which are log-normally distributed such as hydraulic conductivity of aquifers. A specific form for the autocorrelation structure is included. Generating a parameter field represents an important step in the stochastic analysis of ground-water flow and mass transport via the Monte-Carlo technique. The program is written in FORTRAN for both the IBM PC and the VAX 11/780 and runs interactively to allow easy use. The program listing as run on the IBM PC is included. |
