How quickly would groundwater flow through rock with porosity and high permeability?
75
Where do leaking chemicals from landfill sites flow?
into groundwater eventually, then into rivers and the sea!
A rock layer that stores and allows the flow of groundwater?
water.aquiferAquiferan aquifer
What two types of energy are most responsible for making the water cycle a continuous flow?
Precipitation and Groundwater
What is equivalent positive flow in a circuit?
Positive electrical flow is electrons flowing in one direction in a wire, if they change the direction of flow that would be a negative flow. If they change direction quickly, say 60 times a second, that would be alternating current, which is what we have in the united states as household electricity.
How quickly would groundwater flow through rock with porosity and high permeability?
75
What is the difference between throughflow and groundwater flow?
Through flow is the horizontal movement of water through the soil zone. Groundwater flow is the movement of water through the bedrock, which is typically an aquifer
What is the groundwater flow?
The flow of groundwater is an aquifer.
Is Stream flow down slope?
yes through surface run-off or groundwater flow
What affects groundwater flow?
Groundwater flow is affected by factors such as the permeability of the rock or sediment through which it moves, the slope of the water table, and the presence of fractures or faults that may enhance or restrict flow. Human activities, such as pumping water from wells or constructing barriers like dams, can also influence groundwater flow patterns.
Which rock contains well connected pores and allows groundwater to flow through it?
Aquifer
What is a 9 letter word for a rock that allows groundwater to flow through it?
its definetly permeable
what is river system?
a drainage basin this the topographic region from which a stream receives runoff, through flow, and groundwater flow.
Are base flow same as groundwater?
Base flow is the portion of streamflow that comes from groundwater discharge, but it is not exactly the same as groundwater. Groundwater refers to the water stored underground in aquifers, while base flow specifically refers to the contribution of groundwater to streamflow during dry periods when surface runoff is low.
What would happen to the oceans if surface runoff and groundwater flow did not occur?
the oceans would become smaller
Does the water flow quickly through the everglades?
yes
What is a groundwater system?
"Groundwater flow is the movement of water that travels and seeps through soil and rock underground. Stored in cavities and geologic pores of the earth's crust, confined groundwater is under a great deal of pressure. Its upper part is lower than the material in which it is confined. Unconfined groundwater is the term for an aquifer with an exposed water surface."
