Abstract
The pumping rate of fresh water from a well in a coastal aquifer is shown to have a maximum value which may be calculated from an analysis of the horizontal seepage. In particular, this rate is greatest when the well is sunk just to sea level. As examples, the maximum pumping rates from wells located in the Ghyben-Herzberg lens of fresh water formed by rainfall on a circular island and in and aquifer between a fresh water reservoir and the sea, are calculated.
