Quantitative value characterising a size of a drainage area $\begin{array}{l}A_e\end{array}$ :

  
	(1)
	r_e = \sqrt{\frac{A_e}{\pi}}

for circular drainage area

  
	(2)
	r_e = \sqrt(A_e)

for square-shape drainage area

which can be is misnomer for other shapes of drainage area.

It usually makes a physical sense of a distance from a well to the drainage area boundary.
