FIG. 3. Outcrop studies (such as this one at Pit 30, near the center of the Hanford Site) provide information on inter- and intrafacies heterogeneity, including the lateral continuity of lithofacies, and lithofacies associations within and between sedimentary packages.

FIG. 4. Example of three-dimensional geostatistical models representing site-specific lithofacies models. (A) Lithofacies simulation with maximum sandy gravel facies; (B) simulation with maximum silty sand facies; and (C) most probable lithofacies, based on mode of 100 simulations. (sG, sandy gravel; gS, gravelly sand; cS, coarse sand; fS, fine sand; mS, silty sand.)
