Abstract: We compare the quantitative microstructural properties of Berea Sandstone with stochastic reconstructions of the same sandstone. The comparison is based on local porosity theory. The reconstructions employ Fourier space filtering of Gaussian random fields and match the average porosity and two-point correlation function of the experimental model. Connectivity properties of the stochastic models differ significantly from the experimental model. Reconstruction models with different levels of coarse graining also show different average local connectivity.
