Stepping in it produces a squishing noise--it's mud!
Plants grown--or trying to grow--in overly saturated soils will usually develop yellowing or whitening of the leaves, leaf-drop, necrosis (death) of at least some of the bark and woody material, and root-rot.
A common visual appearance is that of bare, greying branches poking above a struggling layer of leafy growth that never grows more
What else can I help you with?
A name for saturated soil?
Another name for saturated soil could be soil liquefaction.
What is the level below which the soil is saturated called?
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.
What is partially saturated soil?
Partially saturated soil is soil in which some of the pore spaces are filled with water while others contain air. This condition occurs when the soil is not fully saturated with water, leaving some space for air to be present.
What is saturated unit weight of soil?
The saturated unit weight of soil is the weight of soil per unit volume when all pore spaces are filled with water. It is commonly used in geotechnical engineering to characterize the density of saturated soil samples during testing.
If the surface soil is saturated and precipitation increases what would it be?
If surface soil is already saturated and precipitation increases, there is a higher likelihood of runoff and potential flooding. This excess water cannot infiltrate into the ground and may instead flow over the surface, leading to waterlogging and possibly soil erosion.

How do you know the standing water is not there because the sediment is saturated?
It is there because, of the type of soil. Soil such as silt would be hard for liquid to pass through it.

What is the difference between saturated and submerged soil?
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.
What is a soil moisture surplus?
The soil in a region is saturated, and rainfall is greater than the need for the moisture.
When does soil become more liquid?
Soil can become more liquid when it absorbs excess water, causing a decrease in viscosity and turning it into mud or slurry. This can happen when there is heavy rainfall, snowmelt, or over-irrigation, leading to saturated soil conditions.
What is Sudden movement of soil saturated with water?
mud slides
What are types of soil are found in estuaries?
rich and saturated with water
What is mean by saturated hydraulic conductivity?
Saturated hydraulic conductivity is a quantitative measure of a saturated soil's ability to transmit water when subjected to a hydraulic gradient. It can be thought of as the ease with which pores of a saturated soil permit water movement.
