What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the top surface of the zone of saturation?
the zone of aeration
When a perched water table intersects the surface on a hillside the result is?
A spring is formed. Water seeping from the perched water table reaches the surface due to the steep slope, creating a visible flow of water.
The dirt or topsoil carried by running water is called slope?
The dirt or topsoil carried by running water is called sediment.
What is the water table meets an eroding hillside?
When the water table meets an eroding hillside, it can lead to increased erosion as water seeps into the slope, making it less stable. This can cause the hillside to collapse or slump, especially if the water table is high. Managing the water table and controlling erosion through vegetation or structural measures can help mitigate these risks.
What is the zone above the water table in which water is suspended called?
The zone above the water table where water is suspended is called the unsaturated zone or vadose zone. This zone contains both air and water in the soil or rock pores.
What is the slope of the water table called?
Gradient is the steepness of a slope.
The steepness of a water table's slope is know as its?
Hydraulic gradient
How does changing the slope of the stream table produce different results?
Changing the slope of the stream table affects the speed and direction of water flow. A steeper slope creates faster water flow, which can result in more erosion and deposition. Conversely, a flatter slope slows down water flow, leading to less erosion and deposition. These changes in flow dynamics can cause differences in the shape and size of channels, as well as the amount and distribution of sediment carried by the water.
What way does water move once is reaches the water table?
Once water seeps through the soil and reaches the water table, it moves horizontally due to gravity following the slope of the water table. It eventually discharges into rivers, lakes, or oceans.
What is the name of the top surface of the zone of saturation?
the zone of aeration
What is the top of the saturated zone called?
The top saturated zone is called the water table.
When a perched water table intersects the surface on a hillside the result is?
A spring is formed. Water seeping from the perched water table reaches the surface due to the steep slope, creating a visible flow of water.
The surface of ground water is called?
Water Table
The dirt or topsoil carried by running water is called slope?
The dirt or topsoil carried by running water is called sediment.
What is the upper surface of saturated aquifer called?
The top level of groundwater in an aquifer is called the water table.
What is the area called that is immediately below a water table?
a mud table
How do you find slope from a table?
Slope is rise over run, so if you have a rise of 2 and a run of 4, then the slope is 0.5. If the table gives rises and runs, then just follow the two until they meet, that should be the slope.
