What does saturation mean in geography?

In geography, saturation refers to the point at which a particular area or environment can no longer absorb or retain any additional quantity of a substance, such as water in the soil. This can affect various natural processes and landscapes, including groundwater infiltration, plant growth, and soil erosion.


Where is ground water stored?

Well groundwater is in the ground so of course it's found in the ground, it can be found truly almost any were in the world. I couldn't tell you exactley were but it's out there, that's for sure.

What is the definition of 'water clogging'?

The definition of 'water clogging' is the saturation of soil with water. This may prevent agriculture. The term can also be used to mean the absence of air in an archaeological environment by water in the ground.

What is critical water saturation?

critical water saturation (sometimes called Irreducible water saturation) defines the maximum water saturation that a formation with a given permeability and porosity can retain without producing water. This water, although present, is held in place by capillary forces and will not flow. Critical water saturations are usually determined through special core analysis.The critical water value should be compared to the reservoir's in-place water saturation calculated from downhole electric logs. If the in-place water saturation does not exceed the critical value, then the well will produce only hydrocarbons. These saturation comparisons are particularly important in low permeability reservoirs, where critical water saturation can exceed 60% while still producing only hydrocarbons.
