Rayleigh wave and well head response to calculate porosity in the Edwards aquifer of south-central Texas, USA [PDF]
Acta Carsologica, 2020 We use the magnitude and centroid period of Rayleigh wave along with the amplitude of fluctuations of water level in a well to calculate effective porosity of a karst aquifer at the site scale.
