What else can I help you with?
The water within the zone of saturation is called?
Groundwater
How are the water table and the zone of saturation related?
The zone of saturation and the water table share two zones of ground water.
Is the zone of aeration above the zone of saturation?
Yes, the zone of aeration is located above the zone of saturation. The zone of aeration contains spaces filled with both air and water, whereas the zone of saturation is where all available spaces are filled with water.
What divides the Aeration zone and Saturation zone?
The water table acts as the boundary between the aeration zone and saturation zone. Below the water table, the pores are fully saturated with water, while above the water table, there is both air and water in the soil pores.
Is the zone of saturation above the zone of aeration?
No, the zone of saturation is below the zone of aeration in the ground. The zone of saturation is where all spaces between soil particles are filled with water, while the zone of aeration is where there are air pockets between the soil particles.
Does a zone of saturation form when air fills the pores in rock?
No, a zone of saturation forms when water fills the pires in rocks
Where is the water table located 1 at the top of the zone saturation 2 under the zone of saturation 3 in the layer of bedrock 4 below the layer of bedrock?
The water table is located at the top of the zone of saturation, where soil and rock are completely saturated with water. It is not generally found under the zone of saturation. The water table is typically above the layer of bedrock. It is usually located above the layer of bedrock, not below it.
Which is the layer underground where all empty spaces are filled with a combination of air and water?
The correct answer is zone of AERATION and NOT zone of SATURATION :)
What is the area immediately below the water table?
The area immediately below the water table is called the zone of saturation. This zone is where spaces between soil and rock particles are filled with water. Groundwater is found in this zone and can be extracted through wells.
What is the boundary between the zone of saturation and zone of aeration?
the answer is the water table.
What is the name of the top surface of the zone of saturation?
the zone of aeration
Is zone of saturation completely solid?
The zone of saturation would not be completely solid. However, the pore spaces would be filled with water.
