Pumping Tests

Pumping Test is a controlled field experiment in well hydraulics wherein a constant or variable rate of groundwater extraction from a well is used to induce transient hydraulic responses in an aquifer, enabling the determination of aquifer properties such as transmissivity, storativity, and hydraulic conductivity through analysis of drawdown data in observation wells.
