Impact of a Low-Permeability Layer on the Pumping Efficiency Under Threats of Saltwater Up-Coning

Impact of a Low-Permeability Layer on the Pumping Efficiency Under Threats of Saltwater Up-Coning

Previous studies on saltwater up-coning are mostly based on the assumption of a homogeneous aquifer and neglect the effect of heterogeneity. A numerical study was carried out to explore the impact of a low-permeability (k) layer on the pumping efficiency under threats of saltwater up-coning. It is f...
