How Wells & Aquifers Actually Work



It is undoubtedly unintuitive that water flows in the soil and rock below our feet. This video covers the basics of groundwater engineering, including how wells are built, how injection wells work, and how aquifers interact with surface water features. Errata: Deep well jet pumps exist that can lift water greater than 100' using an ejector and two pipes.
