Abstract The various definitions of aquifer yield are reconsidered and criticized because the risk of shortages is not quantified. The concept of reliable yield is introduced and a model is proposed that can be used to estimate the yield of an unconfined aquifer to a specified annual reliability. The model is a lumped model which is suitable for the preliminary estimates of aquifer yield required at the early planning stage of water resource development. The model requires as input the recharge for various durations which will be exceeded a specified percentage of the time. Standard statistical analysis of the extreme low flow events of various durations is used to obtain these values. Using recharge data from several unconfined aquifers in...
