| Abstract: | A new analytical solution is developed for describing groundwater level fluctuations in a coupled leaky confined aquifer system
which consists of an unconfined aquifer, confined aquifer, and an aquitard in between. The aquifer system has a tidal boundary
at the seashore, a no flow boundary at remote inland side, and a confined aquifer extending under the sea and terminated with
an outlet-capping. This new solution has shown to be a generalisation of most existing analytical solutions for a tidal aquifer
system which includes single confined and leaky confined aquifers. In addition, the solution is used to explore the influences
of the dimensionless leakance of the outlet-capping, the dimensionless hydraulic diffusivities, and the leakages of the inland
and offshore aquitards on the head responses in the leaky confined aquifer. |
