Hydraulic Conductivity

Hydraulic Conductivity is a hydrogeological property that quantifies the ease with which water can move through porous media, distinguished from related transport properties by its specific dependence on both the intrinsic permeability of the medium and the dynamic viscosity and density of the fluid.
