“…An overview of the state-of-the-art can be found in the recent work of Sophocleous (2002). Analytical studies of the linearized 1D Boussinesq equation to describe changes in bank storage caused by temporal variations in water elevation of the adjacent channel have been pursued by Cooper and Rorabaugh (1963), Hogarth et al (1997), Moench and Barlow (2000), and Hantush, 2005), whereas its nonlinear counterpart problem has been analyzed by Serrano and Workman (1998) and Parlange et al (2000), among others. The analytical work of Theis (1947) on streamflow depletion by pumping was revisited and expanded by Hunt (1999), among many contributors to the subject.…”
