Groundwater Table Gradient Calculation

Introduction to Groundwater Table Gradient Calculation

The groundwater table gradient measures the change in groundwater level over a certain distance. It is an essential parameter in hydrogeological studies and is used to understand the flow and movement of groundwater.

Parameter usage:

• dh = initial groundwater level (in meters)
• dl = final groundwater level (in meters)
• L = distance between dh and dl (in meters)

Output:

• G = groundwater table gradient (in percentage)

Data validation

All parameters should be numerical and positive. The value of L should not be zero.

Summary

This calculator takes into account the initial and final groundwater levels and the distance between them to calculate the groundwater table gradient as a percentage. It is useful in hydrogeological and environmental studies.
