Connectivity constraints and measurements of state variables contain valuable information on aquifer architecture. Multiple-point (MP) geostatistics allow one to simulate aquifer architectures, presenting a predefined degree of global connectivity. In this context, connectivity data are often disregarded. The conditioning to state variables is usually carried out by minimizing a suitable...

Water is critical for economic growth in coastal areas. In this context, desalination has become an increasingly important technology over the last five decades. It often has environmental side effects, especially when the input water is pumped directly from the sea via intake pipelines. However, it is generally more efficient and cheaper to desalt brackish groundwater from beach wells rather...
