This report documents a spreadsheet that has been developed
for analyzing time series with an emphasis on estimating
drawdowns during aquifer tests by removing extraneous waterlevel
changes at observation wells resulting from barometric
pressure changes, earth tides, or regional water-level trends.
The spreadsheet was developed for Microsoft Excel version
9.0 or higher. Use of trade names does not constitute endorsement
by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The spreadsheet
has been tested for accuracy using datasets from different
aquifer tests and FORTRAN solutions of dry earth tide and
gravity tide. If users find or suspect errors, please contact the
USGS.
Every effort has been made by the USGS or the United
States Government to ensure that the spreadsheet is error free.
Despite our best efforts, the possibility exists that errors exist
in the spreadsheet. The distribution of the spreadsheet does
not constitute any warranty by the USGS, and no responsibility
is assumed by the USGS in connection therewith.
