The freshwater flow from a coastal aquifer into the sea per unit length of shoreline is estimatedas 1.5m3/day/m. The hydraulic conductivity of the unconfined aquifer is 13.6m/day. Compute the water table profile and shape of the fresh-saline interface between the shoreline and 1kminland. Use both the Ghyben-Herzberg relation and the solution by Glover. Assume steady conditions.

For an unconfined aquifer with uniform recharge problem, the
initial water table is 10 meters above the confining layer. Given
recharge rate from rainfall 50 cm/year, pumping rate 1000 m^3 /day,
aquifer hydraulic conductivity 10 m/day, calculate the effective
radius and calculate steady-state groundwater head at 100 meters
away from the pumping well.

1) In a leaky confined aquifer, estimate how far from a well pumping at 175 m3/day a steady state drawdown of 0.4 m will be observed. Assume the aquifer is 10 m thick with a horizontal hydraulic conductivity of 7 m/day, the K' is 1 m/day and the b' is 1 m thick, the storativity of the aquifer, S, is 0.02. 2) For the conditions in problem 1, estimate the drawdown at this location after 15 minutes. 3) At the...
A confined aquifer is bounded by two reservoirs. It is known
that the aquifer consists of two formations with different
hydraulic conductivity: K1=2.2 gpd/ft 2, K2 =3.2 gpd/ft 2. If it is
known that the aquifer loses water through leakage at the rate of
0.2 in/day. Please a) compute discharge rate and specific discharge
(Darcy velocity) at the two ends of the aquifer, b) plot the head
surface. Assuming steady-state condition.

An unconfined aquifer has an initial thickness of 15.80 m. The initial water table is horizontal and located 4.7 m below the ground surface. A 15-cm diameter well is driven to the bottom of the aquifer and pumped at 3000 Lpm until steady state conditions are achieved. At this time the drawdown at the well is 4.35 m and the drawdown in an observation well located 850 m away is 0.12 m. (a) Make a sketch that defines the problem....
