Thanks for the explanations! I find these simple sketches a lot more helpful (and sometimes entertaining) for a basic understanding than the "perfect" ones at university which are jam-packed with information. Greetings from Austria!
Thank you for this wonderful explanation. I got one question here. How do we determine the Specific Storage of a confined aquifer that has two episodes of releasing? As in the hydraulic head drops twice from two episodes of water release. Do we calculate the two Specific Storage separately and then average them or add them to get the final Specific Storage? Or should we get total drop in hydraulic head and cumulative water released in both episodes and calculate the Specific Storage?
I've found this site very helpful - www.aqtesolv.com/aquifer-tests/aquifer_properties.htm. To answer your question, Ss=ρg(α+nβ). Look that equation up on the website I mentioned. All of the variables in this equation are not dependent on head decline, they are dependent on the properties of the aquifer, so the Ss in your case would be the same during both head declines. Ss can also be estimated based on typical values for different geologic materials which make up your aquifer, or you can estimate Ss from performing an aquifer test.
I am studying for the Washington Hydrogeologist specialty exam, and this really helps to understand the content. Much appreciated!
Mr. Dane Andersen. I am H.R. and use your information alot around the world 🌎. Thank you, Sir.
Dane you are one chill guy, great content
Thanks for these explanations! Really simplifies the complex diagrams and confusing concepts.

Thanks for your engaging and informative video full of simplicity. From India. God bless you for your services
I loved watching your drawing and your comments on drawing mistakes. Love from Pakistan
Thank you!!!
thanks, this helps. greetings from the Netherlands
Thank you for amazing discussion its actually perfect to me, I had problem in understaning these terms but now, its clear.
thanks for this . love from Pakistan
How can one can calculate sustainable aquifer yield or aquifer yield ?
Thank you! Your explanation is superb. And no worries about your drawings, we got the idea behind them :D
Thank you! This video is very helpful to me.
Thank you I was losing my mind, before understanding that S=Sy for unconfined
thanks a lot

Sir how can i make those aquifer images? Please mention
Thank you ❤️😎
How do I calculate the water lost when the water tale drops 5m? Anybody know of a video or website I can check?
By "water lost", do you mean water you've pumped from the well?
You're funny
