What else can I help you with?
Water stored in layers of soil and rock beneath earths surface is called?
No, it is called ground water.
What is the top level of the groundwater in an aquifer?
The top level of groundwater in an aquifer is called the water table.
The water within the zone of saturation is called?
Groundwater
When sediments fall out of a glacier they create a deposit called what?
Drift and/or till.
Erosion caused by the sandblasting effect of windblown sediments is called?
abrasion
Permeable rock layers or sediments that transmit groundwater freely are called?
Permeable rock layers or sediments that transmit groundwater freely are called aquifers. Aquifers can store and yield significant quantities of water, making them important sources of groundwater for wells and springs.
What are layers that transmit groundwater called?
Layers that transmit groundwater are called aquifers. These layers are typically composed of porous and permeable materials such as sand, gravel, or rock that allow water to flow through them. Aquifers are important sources of freshwater for drinking and irrigation.
What are these underground water storage areas called?
These underground water storage areas are typically referred to as aquifers. Aquifers are permeable rock layers or sediments that can hold and transmit groundwater. They are important sources of water for drinking, irrigation, and industrial use.
What are permeable and porous rock layers thet can hold and transmit groundwater?
Permeable rock layers such as sandstone, limestone, and fractured volcanic rock can hold and transmit groundwater. Porous rock layers like sandstones, conglomerates, and fractured limestone allow for the storage and movement of groundwater due to their interconnected pore spaces.
Water that fills spaces in rock and sediments is called?
groundwater
A permeable rock layer that transmits groundwater?
A permeable rock layer that transmits groundwater is called an aquifer. Aquifers hold and transmit water, allowing it to move through the rock or soil and provide a natural source of groundwater for wells and springs. It is essential for water supply and storage in underground reservoirs.
An underground layer of permeable material that contains groundwater is called?
aquifer
An underground layer of permeable material that contains groundwater is called aan?
It is called an aquifer.
What is the name given to a layer of permeable rock that allows the flow of groundwater?
An aquifer is a layer of permeable rock that contains water. It usually conducts groundwater and supplies the water for wells and springs.
Groundwater is stored in and moves slowly through permeable rock called aquifers . in what zone is groundwater located?
Groundwater is located in the saturation zone of the ground where all the pores in the rock are filled with water. It moves slowly through the permeable rock called aquifers due to the force of gravity.
Water that collects in permeable rock beneath the surface of earth is called?
Water in rocks (or other porous material) below the ground is called ground water.
What is the water filled spaces under ground?
The water-filled spaces underground are called aquifers. Aquifers are underground rock formations or sediments that hold and transmit water. They are an important source of groundwater for drinking water and irrigation.
