Aquifer Storage

Artificial groundwater recharge and recovery of a highly saline aquifer – A paper in Current Science

This paper in Current Science indicates how aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) is an effective method of recharging reclaimed or surplus surface water into confined, or semi-confined permeable formations for later extraction as needed. A key factor in the long-term viability of aquifer storage and recovery is the extent of mineral interaction between two dissimilar water types, their recoverable fractions and consequent impact on water quality and aquifer stability.

Aquifer properties – A presentation by ACWADAM

This presentation on aquifer properties by ACWADAM deals with the storage and transmission properties of aquifers. The two functions of an aquifer, accumulation of water (storage) and flow of water (transmission) are discussed. The permeability or hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer which allows water to flow towards the well is described. Read More

Pumping tests on wells: A means of measuring the storage and transmission properties of aquifers

The presentation by ACWADAM is part of the training module developed by them on “Planning, development and management of groundwater with special reference to watershed management programmes”. Pumping a well and observing the effect of such pumping on the water level in the pumped well as well as in the adjoining parts of the aquifer through observation wells is the basic procedure involved in a pumping test.Read More
