Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The purpose of the study was to determine whether the aquifer in the 15 wells shows a rapid response to increased recharge after precipitation or lack thereof during dry months.The 15 wells located in Świlcza village were selected for monitoring.The average depth of the well was 4.7 m.The deepest was 7 m deep, and the shallowest was 3.1 m deep.Of the 15 wells, only two were in use.Water intake has not changed the position of the water table.The greatest fluctuations in the water table were recorded in shallow wells up to 0.8 m deep during the dry months.The greatest lowering of the water table in the dry months was recorded in well No. 13 by 0.72 m from the highest state (water was taken for watering plants) and in well No. 5 by 0.80 m from the highest state.From well No. 5 water was not drawn.
