Artesian aquifer: See confined aquifer.
Artesian well: A well tapping a confined aquifer.
Artesian aquifer: A geologic formation in which water is under sufficient hydrostatic pressure to be discharged to the surface without pumping.
Artesian Aquifer
A confined aquifer in which groundwater rises in a well above the point at which it is naturally found in the aquifer, due to artesian pressure.

Artesian Aquifer or Well: Water held under pressure in porous rock or soil confined by impermeable geological formations.
an artesian aquifer, or basin, or conduit under pressure.
stator. That portion of a machine which contains the station-
ary (non-moving) parts that surround the moving parts ...
Water levels within wells screened in an artesian aquifer rise to a point above the bottom of the confining bed that overlies the aquifer (it is not necessary for the water to flow at land surface).
Confined aquifer: Aquifers that are wedged between layers of relatively impermeable materials and are consequently under pressure. Also know as an artesian aquifer. DIAGRAM ...
1. Elevation or level of the water table in a well when the pump is not operating. 2. The level or elevation to which water would rise in a tube connected to an artesian aquifer or basin in a conduit under pressure.

Static Water Level: 1. Elevation or level of the water table in a well when the pump is not operating. 2. The level or elevation to which water would rise in a tube connected to an artesian aquifer or basin in a conduit under pressure.
confined aquifer : An aquifer in which ground water is confined under pressure which is significantly greater than atmospheric pressure. See artesian aquifer.
