Abstract

This PhD project focuses on the 3D structure of continental
carbonates and fluid transport within the unsaturated zone of the
Beauce limestones, a key groundwater reservoir in France. Using
high-resolution data from the O-ZNS site (cored boreholes and a
3D-scanned central well), it combines geological, petrophysical, and
numerical approaches to investigate how sedimentary heterogeneity
affects porosity, permeability, and water flow. The work is structured
into three main themes: geological description, physical properties,
and integration into a numerical model.
