Source sentences:
text: Confined aquifers have very low storativity values (much less than 0.01, and as little as 10−5), which means that the aquifer is storing water using the mechanisms of aquifer matrix expansion and the compressibility of water, which typically are both quite small quantities.
text: Aquifers are underground layers of porous and permeable rock or unconsolidated sediment, such as sand and gravel, that hold water.
text: Aquifers describe issues with the quality of groundwater and keeping water clean
text: It not only stores the water but also yields it in adequate quantity.
text: Storativity and hydraulic conductivity are used to quantify the ability of an aquifer to store and transmit water.
text: Hydrogeologists also use several different measures of the capacity of an aquifer to store and yield water.
