Mud or silt.
Water trapped in soil is called "soil moisture" or "soil water." It plays a crucial role in supporting plant growth and providing nutrients to plants.
Water on top of soil is called surface water or runoff.
Through a process called infiltration: water that seeps into the soil is called groundwater.
when the voids of soil are just filled by water the soil mass is called saturated and when soil mass is submerged in water means the water level is above the the soil level or soil mass is drowned in water then soil mass is called submerged.
The level below which the soil is saturated is called the water table. This is the level at which the soil and rock are saturated with water and below which the spaces between soil particles are filled with water.
Soil deposited by water could be silt or mud.
When water erodes soil, a large groove is called a gully.
The process of water moving down through the soil is called infiltration. It refers to the movement of water from the ground surface into the soil.
The layers of soil that can be penetrated by water are called "saturated zones" or "percolation zones". These layers allow water to flow through and be absorbed by the soil.
Permeable layers of soil that can be penetrated by water are called aquifers. Aquifers are underground layers of rock or sediment that are saturated with water and can supply wells and springs with water.
This is known as percolation or groundwater recharge.
The ability of water to move through soil is called "percolation." It describes the process of water moving through soil due to gravity or pressure gradients. This movement helps distribute water, nutrients, and pollutants in the soil.
