Surface water consists of all water that is naturally exposed to the atmosphere including creeks, ponds, rivers, lakes, reservoirs, seas and oceans. Also in this category are springs and wells that are directly influenced by surface water sources.
Groundwater is water found beneath the Earth's surface that gradually seeped down by saturating soil or rock. This water is stored in underground crevices and in the pores of rocks and other materials beneath the surface.
The difference between surface run-off and subsurface run -off is that surface run-off is that when it is precipitation the water goes on the ground like a river and lake. The water that goes on the top of the ground is going to the oceans. The subsurface run-off is that when it is preciptation the water
No, the water table is the upper surface of underground water, whereas groundwater refers to the water that is stored below the earth's surface in soil and rock formations. Groundwater exists below the water table and can be pumped to the surface for various uses.
Surface water is water that flows or gathers on the ground surface, such as rivers, lakes, and streams. It is an important source of freshwater for many ecosystems and human activities.
Runoff
Surface water.
Ground water
When the ground water flow out of the earth surface as a form of spring.
new York's water is neither ground water or surface water it is sky water
what is the upper surface of ground water
AQUIFER-Rock formation/its derivatives where ground water occurs and move but invisible WATERSHED-it is a land surface unit where we alllive and surface water occurs& is visible
Ground water, surface water, river water, etc.
Ground water is on or in the ground, it does not reach it.
The difference between surface run-off and subsurface run -off is that surface run-off is that when it is precipitation the water goes on the ground like a river and lake. The water that goes on the top of the ground is going to the oceans. The subsurface run-off is that when it is preciptation the water
Water Table

The water on the surface of the ground, or water that is not ground water (water underground) that collects in lakes, rivers, streams or oceans. See the related links for more information.
