Scope Scope*1.1 This guide covers and summarizes methods for the presentation of water-level data from groundwat

3、er sites.NOTE 1As used in this guide, a site is meant to be a single point, not a geographic area or property, located by an X,Y, and Z coordinate positionwith respect to land surface or a fixed datum. A groundwater site is defined as any source, location, or sampling station capable of producing wa

4、ter orhydrologic data from a natural stratum from below the surface of the earth. A source or facility can include a well, spring or seep, and drain or tunnel(nearly horizontal in orientation). Other sources, such as excavations, driven devices, bore holes, ponds, lakes, and sinkholes, which can be

5、shown to behydraulically connected to the groundwater, are appropriate for the use intended.1.2 The study of the water table in aquifers helps in the interpretation of the amount of water available for withdrawal, aquifertests, movement of water through the aquifers, and the effects of natural and h

6、uman-induced forces on the aquifers.1.3 A single water level measured at a groundwater site gives the height of water at one vertical position in a well or boreholeat a finite instant in time. This is information that can be used for preliminary planning in the construction of a well or otherfacilit

9、n or between the aquifer.NOTE 1The phrases “short time period” and “finite instant in time” are used throughout this guide to describe the interval for measuring severalproject-related groundwater levels. Often the water levels of groundwater sites in an area of study do not change significantly in

10、a short time, for example,a day or even a week. Unless continuous recorders are used to document water levels at every groundwater site of the project, the measurement at eachsite, for example, use of a steel tape, will be at a slightly different time (unless a large staff is available for a coordin

11、ated measurement). The judgmentof what is a critical time period must be made by a project investigator who is familiar with the hydrology of the area.1.4 Where hydraulic heads are measured in a short period of time, for example, a day, from each of several horizontal locationswithin a specified dep

12、th range, or hydrogeologic unit, or identified aquifer, a potentiometric surface can be drawn for that depthrange, or unit, or aquifer. Water levels from different vertical sites at a single horizontal location may be averaged to a single valuefor the potentiometric surface when the vertical gradien

13、ts are small compared to the horizontal gradients.NOTE 4The potentiometric surface assists in interpreting the gradient and horizontal direction of movement of water through the aquifer. Phenomenasuch as depressions or sinks caused by withdrawal of water from production areas and mounds caused by na
