Question
One application of Darcy’s law analyzes water flow in these structures. For 10 points each:
[10e] Name these underground hydrogeological structures that consist of bodies of permeable rock, thus storing a lot of groundwater.
ANSWER: aquifers
[10m] Recharging in aquifers occurs mostly in this zone above the water table and the phreatic (“free-AT-ihk”) zone. In this zone, groundwater is at standard atmospheric pressure.
ANSWER: vadose zone [accept unsaturated zone; reject “saturated zone” or “zone of saturation”]
[10h] This doubly eponymous statement asserts that the water table is relatively flat and that groundwater flows horizontally. In one of this assumption’s equations, the vertical hydraulic gradient equals zero.
ANSWER: Dupuit-Forchheimer assumption [or Dupuit-Forchheimer model; or Dupuit-Forchheimer approximation]
