Excerpt

Perhaps because of the existence of a vast amount of literature, many hydrogeologists believe that well hydraulics is no longer at the frontier of our discipline. Well testing is well established both in theory and practice; its techniques have been applied for decades. However, despite more than 100 years of theoretical development, the plight of the field hydrogeologist is still not enviable (Williams 1985). Often, the data are ambiguous and the model identification is not unique (Al-Bemani et al. 2003). This matter of fact is seldom emphasized within the literature, which is dominated by the development of new theories, of new testing techniques, of new software and so on. This is understandable, brilliant papers are rarely reports of incomprehensible experiments. The aim of this essay is to try to subjectively answer the following questions: What has been accomplished? What has been the recent progress? How could this field evolve in the future? …
