Abstract
The analytical solutions for describing water-level recovery after a pumping test were constructed based on the superposition principle (see Sect. 10.2), which, in this case, determines the water-level changes in a well as the sum of drawdown values corresponding to two periods: pumping from the well with some (constant or variable) discharge rate and level recovery at a zero discharge rate.
