The pattern of fresh-water flow in a coastal aquifer
Abstract
Formulas are developed for the flow pattern followed by the seaward-moving fresh ground water as it nears a beach. It is found that, under steady flow conditions, a sharply defined interface is formed between the fresh and salt water. Along the interface the pressure of the static salt water, owing to its greater density, is counterbalanced by the pressures which drive the fresh water seaward. The fresh water escapes through a gap between this interface and the shore line. An increase in the flow of fresh water widens the gap. Tidal action causes a diffusion of salt water across the interface. This salt is carried back to sea with the fresh-water flow.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
