A confined aquifer has a specific storage of 1.8 x 10-5 /m. The porosity is 0.31, and the water compressibility is 4.5x10-10 /Pa. (A) What is the compressibility of the aquifer skeleton [5 pts]?b) For the aquifer skeleton compressibility you just calculated, what would the aquifer specific storage be if porosity were 50%.

c)What effect does the increasing porosity have on aquifer storativity? Why?
