Abstract

•An analytical model is developed to handle horizontal aquifer/aquitard heterogeneity.•A high-K aquitard window tends to dampen tide-induced aquifer head fluctuations.•Aquifer head fluctuations may be dampened by a large-size high-Ss aquitard window.•Sandbox experiments validated the effects of a high-K aquitard window.
