在水文地质学家目前面临的问题中，也许没有一个比裂隙岩石的表征更具挑战性了。 在水文地质系统中，在调查裂缝网络本身的性质和变化之前，无法以任何实际方式解决有关地下水流和环境修复的一般问题。 在制定开采裂隙岩中的石油、天然气和地热储层的经济计划时，也会遇到类似的困难。 在核电厂产生的乏燃料的储存方面，同样甚至更大的困难也引起了我们的注意。 例如，如果我们要在地下岩石系统中隔离乏核燃料，我们必须建造一个储存库，以保护生物圈免受放射性污染，同时使整个岩石系统承受数千年的显着热场。 预测废物储存库在这种条件下的行为，特别是在裂隙岩石中，是一项艰巨的任务。

Among the current problems that hydrogeologists face, perhaps there is none as challenging as the characterization of fractured rock. Within hydrogeological systems, general issues concerning groundwater flow and environmental remediation cannot be resolved in any practical manner prior to investigating the nature and vagaries of the fracture networks themselves. Comparable difficulties arise when developing economic programs for the exploitation of oil, gas, and geothermal reservoirs in fractured rock. Equal, if not greater, difficulties have commanded our attention relatively recently in regard to the storing of spent fuel generated by nuclear power plants. For example, if we are to isolate spent nuclear fuel in underground rock systems, we must construct a repository to protect the biosphere from contamination by radioactivity while subjecting the total rock system to a significant thermal field for many thousands of years. Predicting the behavior of a waste repository under such conditions, especially in fractured rock, is a formidable task.
