Abstract

Based on Thiem's equilibrium formula an attempt has been made in the present paper to arrive at an empirical factor for the determination of transmissibility. Multiplying such factor by the specific capacity values of the wells tested gives an average value for ‘T’ for unconfined water-table aquifer conditions in trappean terrains. Suitability of this method with particular reference to poorly-permeable water-table aquifers in trappean tracts of Maharashtra in India is also discussed. Further lines of research to study its applicability in different geohydrological environments are suggested.
