Two properties of an aquifer material related to its storage function are its porosity and specific yield. Porosity is the ratio of the volume of voids or pores in a soil mass to its total volume. Shape, size and packing of the grains affect the porosity of granular material. The grain size distribution of the […]

Unsteady Radial Flow in an Unconfined Aquifer | Ground Water
Article shared by :
The Theis equations are based on the assumption that the water is released from storage in the aquifer in immediate response to the decline in the water table. In unconfined aquifers, gravity drainage may not be immediate, particularly in fine grained formations and with stratifications of slow yielding materials. When a well is pumped in […]
