Concept of artesian aquifers and pressure is not clear.
HydrogeologyThe concept of artesian aquifers Artesian aquifers are a fascinating phenomenon in the field of hydrogeology. These aquifers are characterized by the presence of confined groundwater that is under pressure, resulting in the spontaneous flow of water to the surface when a well is drilled into the aquifer. Understanding the concept of artesian aquifers and
