  "definition": "1. A coefficient of proportionality describing the rate at which a fluid (e.g., water or gas) can move through a permeable medium. Conductivity is a function of both the intrinsic permeability of the porous medium and the kinematic viscosity of the fluid which flows through it.\n\n2. A measure of the ability of a solution (water) to carry an electric current.\n\n3. A measure of the ability of a solution to carry an electrical current.",
