Question

Stage I water restrictions begin when the aquifer level reached 660 feet Stage II water restrictions begin when the aquifer level reached 650 feet Stage II water restrictions begin when the aquifer level reached 640 feet 6) If the water levels continue to fall at roughly the same rate, when do you think we will enter stage 3 water restrictions? 7) Do you see any correlation between rainfall and aquifer water elevations? How would you rate the correlation? (Strong, moderate, weak) 8) If so, give two dates where this is most pronounced The following graph shows aquifer levels and daily pumping from the aquifer for the month of January, 2000 Aquifer Levels and Daily Water Usage 646,0 300 250 200 150 100Pumpage 50 0 645.0 644.0 643.0 J-17 Elevation 642.0 641.0 640.0 9) What do you think caused the decreases pumping around January, 3", 10",17h and 27th? 10) What type of correlation is there between the daily pumping and water elevations?

I really need help with these I would appreciate it so much

Answer 1

Answer 6)If the water level falls roughly at this rate then there will be scarcity of water and we will enter into the stage 3 of pumping

Answer 7) The aquifer water elevation is directly proportional to the rainfall. The rains causes an increasing in the water level in the aquifers

Answer 8) The two dates are 25/1 and 29/1 when the rise in aquifer level is high with increase in rainfall

Answer 9) The elevation of the water table in the aquifer was low in the mentioned dates, thus the pumping had to be reduced

Answer 10) A positive correlation is present between the aquifer elevation and the rate of pumping. The rate of pumping decreases as the elevation of the aquifer decreases.
