drawdown in a pumping well split into a linear aquifer loss and a nonlinear well loss proportional to the square of discharge.

In hydrogeology, well loss refers to drawdown in a pumping well split into a linear aquifer loss and a nonlinear well loss proportional to the square of discharge. This meaning comes from Jacob (1947) in Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers.[1]
