Short summary
Groundwater pumping can cause severe land subsidence and decrease ground surface level. A physical model test were conducted to mimic this process. An interesting phenomenon is that, due to their low permeability, aquitard units may expand in a period when groundwater is withdrawn from the neighboring aquifer units, and they may compact when groundwater is recharged into the neighbor aquifer units.
