An aquifer is a zone of saturation that is used by inhabitants as a water supply. An aquifer is a body of saturated rock through which water can easily move through.
a Marsh, a Swamp, a Quagmire or a Bog

The correct answer is zone of AERATION and NOT zone of SATURATION :)
When rain falls, some of the water soaks into the ground. Plants use some of it, but much of the water sinks deeper into the soil. Gravity draws it through rocks that contain small holes or what is s. As it seeps through this porous rock, the water continues on until it reaches a level of total saturation. That level is called a water table.
No, but the higher the liquid temperature, the higher the saturation point and the more salt that can be dissolved.
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.
earth's water cycle gives us fresh water. we use this fresh water for our daily consumption. when this water cycle is in danger ,our fresh water source also comes in danger. thus if any disturbances occur in the earth's water cycle ,these disturbances directly or indirectly affect our water supply. for example if an area's water supply depends upon a river's fresh water and if due to acid rain the water of that river gets contaminated then the water supply becomes contaminated and cannot be used.

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.
This is known as the phreatic surface or water table.
A saturation, or a saturated lliquid, depending on who's asking.
DRY steam is superheated There is a temperature below which steam will start to condense into water droplets. This is called the saturation temperature, and it varies with the pressure of the steam. Steam that is exactly at its saturation temperature is called saturated steam. Steam that is below its saturation temperature contains droplets of moisture and is called wet steam. Steam that is above its saturation temperature is called superheated steam.
The zone of saturation and the water table share two zones of ground water.
An unhealthy or impure water supply is contaminated.

It is called the water table or phreatic surface.
