When groundwater flows to the surface without pumping, it’s an artesian well. A hundred years ago, they were common. There is even a city in CA named Artesia.

But new research from @aeliz_hilton and @sjasechko shows that pumping has made these wells much less common @BrenUCSB
A century of groundwater pumping has devastated artesian wells in the United States. scim.ag/46i
