be_storage.RdThis function estimates the storage coefficient from physical properties and the barometric efficiency The equation used is from Batu 1998, eq 2-101, pg. 72
be_storage(be, n, b, gamma = 9799.74, beta = 4.786e-10)
| be | the barometric efficiency (numeric) | 
|---|---|
| n | the porosity 0 to 1 (numeric) | 
| b | aquifer thickness (m) (numeric) | 
| gamma | the specific weight of water (N/m^3) (numeric) | 
| beta | the compressibility of water (4.786e-10 m^2/N) (numeric) |
