That is true.
In an artesian well, water rises because of pressure sustained within the aquifer. In this system, water sometimes escapes to the surface to cause artesian springs.
The difference between an artesian basin and artesian wells is that the basin keeps the water contained underground and the well has water in it that rises under its own pressure.
low pressure
A increase in air temperature and a decrease in air pressure
Intrapulmonary Pressure
if the water rises above the surface without any help, it's an artesan well
In an artesian well, water rises because of pressure sustained within the aquifer. In this system, water sometimes escapes to the surface to cause artesian springs.
Because Of The Pressure. In an artesian well the aquifer is sandwiched between impermeable rock and that creates positive pressure. When the well is drilled the water has a route to air and is forced to the surface. It's the same as a natural spring with a geyser.
artesian
The difference between an artesian basin and artesian wells is that the basin keeps the water contained underground and the well has water in it that rises under its own pressure.
This type of well is called an Artesian Well. If the pressure is great enough to raise the water above the ground level, it is called a Flowing Artesian Well.
An Artesian well, or commonly a spring, will flow of their own accord.
pressure under the surface
In some ground formations there is an impermeable layer which holds the water beneath it under pressure. In such a case where a well penetrates the impermeable layer, the water rises through the upper layers of the ground and even above ground-surface level
They are called Artesian Wells where underground water under positive pressure causes the water level in the well to rise to a point where hydrostatic equilibrium has been reached. If the water reaches ground level they are call flowing artesian wells; some my look like fountains.
