35 m3 of water was pumped into a farm distribution system. 12 m3 of water is delivered to a turn out (at head ditch) which is 3 km from the well. The delivery of 10 m3/s to a 35 ha farm is continued for 3.5 hours. The farm was irrigated by furrow irrigation system; the tail water is 0.27 m3/s. Soil probing after irrigation indicates that 30 cm of water has been stored in the root zone. A Uniformity Check is taken by probing many stations down the furrow.

There is a water supply well in an unconfined sand aquifer in Cape Cod near the shore. It has a screened section that extends from 25 to 45 feet below sea level. Without pumping, the water level in the well is 7.0 feet above sea level. The well was pumped at a steady discharge, and by the end of one week the water level was 1.0 foot above sea level. The water pumped during the week was consistently fresh with no significant change in salinity. Density of seawater is 1.025 g/cm3. Density of freshwater is 1.000 g/cm3 a) sketch the problem and estimate the level of the saltwater interface at the location of the well before and after the week of pumping. b) proceed with the calculation as if the conditions related to the Ghyben-Herzberg equation apply. c) Using the equation above, does the problem violate any of the following and if so why: The interface between the fresh and saltwater is sharp with no mixing, There is no resistance to vertical flow in the saltwater or the freshwater…
7 Yuri wants to determine the permeability of an aquifer. The aquifer has a test well 300-mm in diameter with two observation wells. A pumping test was conducted for 24 hours with the discharge being held constant at 6,481 m^3/day. The first one, 87.94 meters from the test well, has a draw-down of 0.56 meters. The second one, 46 meters from the test well, has a draw-down of 1.25 meters.The static water table penetrates the well to a depth of 28 meters. Determine the radius of influence of the aquifer in meters. Round off to three decimal places.
A discharge of 0.15 cumecs is supplied into a canal at the head and 0.1 cumecs is delivered to field having an area of 1.5 hac. The Irrigation is started at a moisture extraction level of 60% of the available moisture and then extends for 10 hours.

A drainage basin has a area of 7322 km2. The average annual precipitation for this area is 909 mm. The average surface water flow at the outlet of the catchment is 21.4 x 108 m3/year and the average groundwater flow out of the basin is 94.6 mm/year. Assume trailing zeros are significant if present. Determine the annual average evaporation in mm/year. (give your answer to one decimal place)
