Professor Ghislain de Marsily is an internationally renowned scientist famed for his contributions to groundwater hydrology and water management. He is a pioneer in the development of stochastic hydrogeology. This presentation will outline and explore the significant contributions made by de Marsily to hydrogeology as a whole and to stochastic hydrogeology in particular. It will examine the effect of his work on defining the discipline of hydrogeology as we know it today, and will go on to show the significant impact his students and colleagues continue to have, inspired by his passion, ideas and enthusiasm for a more sustainable, equitable future for all.
