The "water table" refers to the level of the groundwater (sometimes also called the "ground water table") below the surface of the earth.
The level varies according to local topography and environmental conditions. In some cases the water table can be a few centimeters below the surface of the land or it can be hundreds of meters below the surface.
Water table is important for a number of reasons; large trees and plants are normally "tapped into" it, and get their water from this source if they are not being irrigated. Wells and well points also tap into the water table so that animals and humans can make use of it.
Major concerns about the water table include: pollution of the ground water, salinity and over exploitation.
The water table is the area below ground where unsaturated soil ends and saturated soil begins.

How deep must a well be dug in order to yield a constant supply of freshwater?
below the water table pssshhh noob
What is the water that seeps out where the water table meets an eroding hillside?
The water that seeps out where the water table meets an eroding hillside is known as a seepage spring. This occurs when groundwater is forced to the surface due to the intersection of the water table with the hillside, resulting in a constant flow of water. These seepage springs are common in areas with sloping terrain and can contribute to erosion over time.
How do you recognize a proportional relationships in a table?
If you take any pair of variables in the table, their ratio is a constant.
What is the structure of the water table?
Water, table
Where does a water table lake or pond get its water from?
a water table
What is the name of the top surface of the zone of saturation?
the zone of aeration
Does a dish resting on a table have constant acceleration?
No, a dish resting on a table does not have constant acceleration. In fact, it has zero acceleration because it is not moving. Constant acceleration only occurs when an object's velocity changes at a constant rate over time.
Why doesn't table salt have a solubility product constant?
Table salt, or sodium chloride (NaCl), does have a solubility product constant (Ksp) value that can be calculated. It is a measure of the equilibrium constant for the dissolution of an ionic compound in water. The Ksp value for NaCl is approximately 36.7 at 25°C.
How can water from a water table be drawn out?
pour it out from the table./
Where can people obtain groundwater by drilling a well A below the water table B above the water table C beside a water table?
above the water table
Where is a perched water table in relation to its other water table?
A perched water table is located above the main water table. It forms when an impermeable layer, such as clay or rock, restricts the downward movement of water, causing water to accumulate above it. The perched water table can be found at a higher elevation than the main water table.
How does the water bottle industry effect the water table?
It lowers the water table, obviously.
