Abstract
Shock waves resulting from an earthquake may disarrange, either temporarily or permanently, the structure of a water-bearing formation and cause fluctuations of water levels. Since 1950, about 200 sudden fluctuations in 38 wells in New Jersey definitely have been correlated with earthquakes. A careful study of recorder charts indicates that there has been no permanent effect on the water levels in any well in New Jersey.
