What causes the water in an artesian well to spout upwards?
The term artesian means that the water is contained in an underground aquifer and/or reservoir. The fact that it is spouting means that it has artesian pressure and is a flowingartesian well. The geology of the site determines the amount of pressure on the reservoir and not all artesian wells have enough, or any pressure to spout. The pressure comes from the weight of ground structures and ground water pressing on and around the underground reservoir.
