Title: Small and Large-Diameter, Water-Table Observation Wells Compared
Abstract: SHALLOW ground-water investigations
usually involve the use of various
sizes of perforated observation
wells and/or sometimes batteries of
piezometer tubes. Such equipment is
used to determine the position of the
water table, defined as the upper surface
of the saturation zone and also the
surface of atmospheric pressure (3, 4) 0 .
The zone of saturation, however, often
extends above the surface of atmospheric
pressure a distance dependent
primarily on the soil texture.
