Groundwater Flow

The stories in this section illustrate how pumping activity of varying intensity (unpumped, pumped, pumped at high rate) influences groundwater flow and river water levels in the vicinity of boreholes. The story "Pumped borehole - increased rate" compares these varying effects and accretion curves.
