Groundwater level terminology

Water strike

When drilling a borehole water strike may be recorded. This is the level at which water is first encountered. Comparisons of water strike to rest water level can be used to identify perched water table (strike > level) or confined conditions (strike < level).

A more formal term is rest water level (RWL) which implies the water level in a borehole that has not been recently pumped, nor affected by nearby pumping.

A pumped water level (PWL) refers to a water level measured while the borehole is pumped.
