Extended power-law scaling of heavy-tailed random air-permeability fields in fractured and sedimentary rocks

We analyze the scaling behaviors of two field-scale log permeability data sets showing heavy-tailed frequency distributions in three and two spatial dimensions, respectively. One set consists of 1-m scale pneumatic packer test data from six vertical and inclined boreholes spanning a decameters scale...
