Abstract: | A buried channel has been located, in the basaltic terrain, near village Shenoli, District Satara, Maharashtra. It is composed of a gritty mass formed of a semi-consolidated material. The resistivity value of the semi-consolidated formation is 6.30 Ohm — m whereas the resistivity values of the vesicular basalts range between 18 and 32 Ohm-m. The specific capacity, unit area specific capacity, specific capacity index, transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity, with respect of the buried channel, are 609.07 LPM/m of drawdown, 12.12 LPM/m3, 95.47 LPM/m2, 353.26 m2/day and 55.37 m/day, respectively whereas the values of these parameters for basalt aquifers range from 67 to 117 LPM/m of drawdown, 0.7 to 4.27 LPM/m3, 14.08 to 31.04 LPM/m2, 33.5 to 73.71 m2/day and 9.44 to 18.32 m/day, respectively. A comparison of the well characteristics and aquifer parameters reveal that the buried channel with semi-consolidated formation has distinctly better groundwater yielding properties. |
