Anisotropy is a common feature in water laid sedimentary deposits (fluvial, . clastic. lake, deltaic and glacial outwash). . Water lain deposits may exhibit anisotropy on the horizontal plain (X,Y if looking down from above). Analysis and Evaluation of Pumping Test . Data, Revised Second Edition. Definition.
