Discharge Calculation Sheet

This document provides a calculation sheet for ground water discharge following Darcy's law. It includes two cases: without a well and with a well. For each case it lists the permeability (K), hydraulic head (H), length (L), and cross-sectional area (A) to calculate the discharge (Q) using Darcy's law. The results show that accounting for a well decreases the ground water discharge toward the swamp.
