Groundwater Flow

​The stories in this section illustrate how pumping activity of varying intensity (un-pumped, 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.
