Abstract
Computing aquitard depletion, which is often overlooked, is of great significance for the assessment of groundwater resources and land subsidence. The issue is viewed as troublesome because of the additional computational burden, the poorly known hydrogeological parameters of the aquitard, and the lack of drawdown history in pumped aquifers. In this study, an analytical solution is derived to describe the drawdown variation in a nonlinear-consolidated aquitard under the condition of variable drawdowns in adjacent aquifers. Based on the analytical solution, we study the characteristics of groundwater dynamics and water balance under the conditions of linearly increasing drawdown of aquifers in adjacent aquifers. In addition, we put forward a method to calculate the depletion and hydrogeological parameters of an aquitard corresponding to variable drawdowns in adjacent aquifers, applicable even when historical drawdown data are lacking. The accuracy of the method is generally very good, but results improve when the drawdown history of pumped aquifers is divided into more periods for estimation. Under the condition of linear drawdown in adjacent aquifers, groundwater depletion and maximum water release rate of the aquitard increases with increasing compression index, coefficient of consolidation, aquitard thickness, rate of drawdown change in the adjacent aquifer, while decreasing with initial void ratio, and initial effective stress. The proposed approach is demonstrated at a field site in Shanghai City of China, and it would help for the effective management of groundwater resources and estimation of the global transfer from groundwater to surface water.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
