HELP!!!! Which of the following correctly relates the porosity, permeability and production of a well in an aquifer?
a. Increasing porosity and decreasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer.
b. Decreasing porosity and increasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer.
c. Decreasing porosity and decreasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer.
d. Increasing porosity and increasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer.

Respuesta :

D-Increasing porosity and increasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer

Answer:

d. Increasing porosity and increasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer.

Explanation:

Underground aquifers are permeable geological formations that allow water to accumulate inside the soil. Depending on how water circulates within the soil, there are three primary types of aquifers: porous, karstic and fissural.

In addition to supplying sufficient water to keep surface watercourses stable (production function), aquifers also help prevent their overflow by absorbing excess heavy rainwater (regularization function).
