Artesian wells

Question

Hello anyone interested in helping create more knowledge about free flowing artesian wells in Florida ?Looking to find folks interested in artesian well water use.

DR. MIGUEL RANGEL MEDINA · Accepted Answer

What do you need exactly? Because it is called an artesian well when groundwater flow can overflow the well, sometimes flowing outward at the surface! This is because the GW is under the pressure of an impermeable stratum and when a well is drilled, the water is released with a hydraulic potential higher than the atmospheric pressure. Is this the case? 
Because people called artesian well to any well without this knowledge. Regards. Dr. Miguel Rangel
