Introduction Decision making relative to groundwater resources requires the characterization, modeling, and prediction of complex and dynamical systems with many degrees of freedom. Nonetheless, these systems have largescale structure that emerges from hierarchical properties based on conservation principles applied to fundamental physical quantities (e.g., mass, momentum and energy). Difficulties arise as hydrologic systems are inherently heterogeneous and sometimes chaotic. This is not specific to hydrology, but it is generic to natural or manmade complex systems. Two approaches have been proposed to handle these complex systems. Whether they are called model-driven or data-driven, explicit or implicit, they differ widely by methodology. In the explicit model-driven approach, processes are physically modeled at each characteristic scale and progressively scaled up. Patterns, equivalent properties, and effective laws emerge progressively through upscaling. This has been performed extensively in stochastic hydrology to derive equivalent permeability and in percolation theory to identify universal scaling laws (Stauffer and Aharony 1992). Large-scale observations are integrated by adapting the model parameters through the classic, but generally ill-posed, inverse problem (Zimmerman et al. 1998). In the implicit data-driven approach, minimal assumptions are made on the structure of the models developed (Hastie et al. 2003; Montgomery 2006). Rather, this approach relies on generic data-driven analysis based on statistics and artificial intelligence. Among numerous
