Short summary
This study reveals new insights to the behaviour of subsurface water flow in fractured bedrock which has important implications for environmental safety of geological storage of spent nuclear fuel, carbon sequestration and other unwanted substances. It shows the relevance of accounting for small scale fracture heterogeneity in models to make accurate predictions on the transit times and pathways water flow takes through bedrock.
