Best Answer

One factor would be the amount of rainfall in the area. If not a lot of water would rain in a specific area than the ground water amount would be very low, and if there were a lot of rain in the area the water amount would be high. Another factor could be the amount of plants in the area. If there were little plants in the area, the plants would suck up the water but not very much of it. But if it was an area with a lot of plants, the plants would suck up a big amount of water.
