What is Drawdown in Hydrology?

Drawdown is a change in groundwater level due to an applied stress, caused by events such as: Pumping from a well, pumping from a neighboring well, intensive water taking from local area, seasonal declines as recharge rates lower.

How to Calculate Distance from Pumping Well given Storage Coefficient?

Distance from Pumping Well given Storage Coefficient calculator uses Distance from Pumping Well = sqrt((2.25*Transmissivity*Starting Time/Storage Coefficient)) to calculate the Distance from Pumping Well, The Distance from Pumping Well given Storage Coefficient formula is defined as the radius or area around a well where the drawdown or reduction in groundwater level can be observed. This distance is influenced by the storage coefficient, which is a measure of the amount of water a confined aquifer releases from storage per unit surface area of the aquifer per unit decline in the piezometric head. Distance from Pumping Well is denoted by r symbol.
