Abstract
ABSTRACTA method has been developed by which the slope between any two successive data points on a time‐drawdown plot can be used for determining aquifer parameters in nonleaky and leaky aquifers. The method yields values of transmissivity and storage coefficient which are in good agreement with the results of the classically known techniques. The method of slope analysis offers several advantages in its use. These advantages include the following: Changes in values for the aquifer parameters that might occur during a pumping test can be identified. Confidence limits can be calculated for average values of aquifer parameters. The method yields meaningful aquifer parameter estimates even for short duration pumping tests. Subjective interpretation of the data is minimized.
