Groundwater
What three major layers rainwater touch in order to reach an aquifer?
1.surface layer 2.zone of aeration 3.zone of saturation
Define the following saturation zone unsaturated zone aquifer recharge surface water discharge and remediation?
Its when a Aquifer recharges bc the surface has to much water realeasing the discharge of water.
Where there is a zone of air divergence at Earth's surface. What would you expect to see directly above the zone and why?
Clear weather because there are no fronts presently over the zone
Deep-sea sediments most likely contribute to continent growth by being?
scraped off in a subduction zone and left at the surface
Groundwater is found below the surface in the zone of?
Groundwater is found underground in the SATURATIONzone.
What is Groundwater is found below the surface in the zone of .?
Yes, largely in pores or holes in rock and soil layers.
What is the difference between groundwater and aquifers?
Groundwater is any water present below the earth's surface. An aquifer is a porous and permeable zone in a rock or soil through which ground water flows.
Is groundwater found in the saturated zone or the unsaturated zone?
Groundwater is found in a saturated zone, meaning that since there is so much water in the soil, theres just water.
Where is ground water stored?
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.
What is the upper surface of groundwater?
The upper surface of groundwater is called the unsaturated zone. The unsaturated upper surface contains water, as well as spaces of air, particle grains and rocks.
What is a place where groundwater flows to the surface?
Places where groundwater flows to the surface are called springs.
What are the two zones of the groundwater?
The two zones of groundwater are the saturated zone and unsaturated zone.The saturated zone is filled with water and is below the unsaturated zone. The unsaturated zone has water and air in its pores (tiny open spaces in the soil).
Where do viper fish live?
The Viperfish can be found in the bathyal zone, abyssal zone, or the hadal zone of the aphotic zone. The apotic zone ranges from approximately 1000 meters below the ocean's surface to the bottom of the ocean.
How does groundwater form?
It rains then that water forms a lake or river then the water soaks down into the ground Then it must stay there for a couple of years then it forms a large amount of clean water This cycle forms groundwater.
What layer of soil is groundwater located?
Groundwater is located in aquifers which are layers of rocks underground that have pores that fill with water that comes from the above layer called the water table or phreatic surface. Further below the water table, where the pores are filled with water, is called the phreatic zone.
What is the zone beneath Earth's surface where all open spaces in sediments and rock are completely filled with water?
Groundwater
