Saline intrusion - excessively pumped conditions, saline water (notation)

Back

This image shows excessively pumped conditions. The water level is reduced significantly due to pumping. The saline interface has risen in response to this reduction in hydrostatic pressure.

Pumping has been sufficiently intensive to bring the saline interface into the deepest
observation borehole.

Additionally, saline water is being pumped from the borehole (notation on image).
