Infiltration is when water is going into the ground. Percolation is when water is passing the water table underground.

What is the process of moving water down through the soil?
This is known as percolation or groundwater recharge.
What is percolation in soil?
Percolation of soil is the infiltration of it, which is important because it determines if water placed on soil will either soak through or cause runoff or even worse erosion.
What is the difference between runoff and percolation?

What is the difference between percolation and seepage?
seepage is the slow movement of any liquid through porous material and percolation is the vertical movement of liquid to the porous material.
What is the relationship between permeability and rate of infiltration?

How does a deciduous forest affect the river discharge?
Infiltration, Infiltration, Percolation
How does the water enter the groundwater system?
Infiltration and then percolation.

What is the difference between infiltration and seepage?
infiltration is strictly downward motion in the direction of gravity while seepage can be in any direction.

Explain the relationship between particle size and percolation rate?
Smaller particle sizes generally result in faster percolation rates because there is less resistance to the flow of liquids through the smaller spaces between the particles. Larger particles create more void spaces and can slow down the percolation rate as the liquid has to travel through these larger spaces. Therefore, finer particles allow liquid to flow more quickly compared to coarser particles.
Difference between fatty infiltration and fatty change?
infiltration is physiological, as seen in thymus in puberty, change is pathological accumulation, as seen in liver in steatosis
What is the difference between infiltration and runoff?
infiltration is different because when it happens the rain soaks underground it doesn't fall back into bodies of water like runoff does.

What is the difference between phlebitis and infiltration?
Both terms phlebitis and infiltration are terms related to Intravenous. Infiltration is the situation when fluid from the IV leaks from the vein into the surrounding tissue. Phlebitis is the actual irritation that occurs in the vein and surrounding tissues.
