How do artesian wells form?
Artesian wells formed when pressure is great enough to push any water to the surface.
Wells from which pressurized water flows to the surface are called?
Artesian Wells. Water can be brought to the surface, natural air pressure, providing it is no deeper than 34 feet. (Air pressure allows for this). Water any deeper than 34 feet, requires a pressure system to bring it to the surface.
Groundwater sometimes flows out of the surface in artesian wells?
no
How does artesian springs differ from wells?
The water in artesian wells is under pressure - or at least was when the well was dug.
What is the difference between artesian basin and artesian wells?
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.
Wells in which the water flows naturally to the surface?
artesian wells
How do artesian wells form?

What is a drilled water well that allows water to rise to the surface without using a pump?
Naturally flowing water wells are called "Artesian" wells.An artesian well
A pump is not used to raise groundwater to the surface in areas where artesian wells are located becasue the water in artesian wells is?
under high pressure
How do wells provide water?
In artesian wells the water is forced to the surface by ground pressure. In conventional wells a pump is used to pump the water up.

True
What are the springs that form where pressurized water flows through cracks in cap rock?
The springs that form where pressurized water flows through cracks in cap rock are called Artesian springs. This is the type of spring that feeds drinking wells.
Where does rockaways population get its water from?
From artesian wells.
