What else can I help you with?
How do you know the surface water is not there because the sediment is saturated?
If the sediment is saturated, it means it is filled with water, which leaves no room for free-standing surface water on top. When sediment is saturated, all available pore spaces are already occupied by water, so surface water cannot collect on top of it.
Which is the layer under ground where all empty spaces are filled with water?
The layer underground where all empty spaces are filled with water is called the saturated zone or the phreatic zone. This zone is located below the water table, which is the upper boundary of the saturated zone where water pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure. Groundwater is stored in the saturated zone and is a vital source of drinking water for many communities.
What is the water that seeps through rocks and soil called?
ground water Groundwater is located beneath the soil surface. A sustainable amount of ground water creates an aquifer. The point at which the soil and rocks become completely saturated is the water table. Groundwater will flow to the surface naturally. The study of groundwater is hydrogeology.
What is an area below earths surface that is completely saturated with water?
An aquifer is an area below Earth's surface that is completely saturated with water, allowing for the storage and movement of groundwater. This underground reservoir can be a vital source of water for wells and springs.
What is the movement of surface water into rocks or soil through cracks or pore spaces?
Infiltration is the movement of surface water into rocks or soil through cracks or pore spaces.
What do Marine Bioligists study?
The Study Of The Surface Or Rocks Or Everything Under Water
Are Extrusive Igneous Rocks Formed On The Earth's Surface?
Yes. Or in the air, or under water, or very near the surface.

Who big can Algae get?
Algae can cover any surface; walls, rocks, etc, as long as it is under water.
Where is the water table in a gun?
The water table in a gun is the upper surface of the groundwater. It is the level at which the soil and rocks are saturated with water and can be accessed through wells. It is important to know the water table depth for construction projects and water resource management.
Where is the groundwater located under the surface?
Its located above layers of impermeable underground rocks. At or below the water table.
What is the top of the saturated zone is known as the?
The water table or phreatic surface.
Why are clouds not saturated with fat?
Fat floats on water, but not on the surface of the troposphere.
Name some places where extremeophiles live?
Extremeophiles are found living in water at the boiling point or even hotter, in hot springs and undersea volcanic vents, in rocks deep under the surface of the Earth, in very hot and dry deserts, in saturated salt solutions, etc.
What is an area of land that is covered by water or that is saturated with surface water or groundwater for long periods?
Wetlands
