According to the Wikipedia article on Water Table as of this writing, the zone of intermittent saturation is a range of depth in which the ground is intermittently saturated with water. In some places, the water table raises in the winter, and falls in the summer. The zone between the winter height and the summer height is the zone of intermittent saturation. Sometimes wet. Sometimes dry.
What else can I help you with?
Which is the layer underground where there are no empty spaces for a water or air to fill in?
Impermeable Rock
Is zone of saturation completely solid?
The zone of saturation would not be completely solid. However, the pore spaces would be filled with water.
Where is the water table located 1 at the top of the zone saturation 2 under the zone of saturation 3 in the layer of bedrock 4 below the layer of bedrock?
The water table is located at the top of the zone of saturation, where soil and rock are completely saturated with water. It is not generally found under the zone of saturation. The water table is typically above the layer of bedrock. It is usually located above the layer of bedrock, not below it.
Does a zone of saturation form when air fills the pores in rock?
No, a zone of saturation forms when water fills the pires in rocks
An aquifer is water stored in the .?
ground zone of saturation
What are zone of intermittent saturation?
The zone of intermittent saturation, also known as the capillary fringe, is the area above the water table in the ground where water is drawn up by capillary action but doesn't saturate the soil completely. This zone is important for providing nutrients to plants and supporting microbial activity in the soil.
Is the zone of saturation above the zone of aeration?
No, the zone of saturation is below the zone of aeration in the ground. The zone of saturation is where all spaces between soil particles are filled with water, while the zone of aeration is where there are air pockets between the soil particles.
Is the zone of aeration above the zone of saturation?
Yes, the zone of aeration is located above the zone of saturation. The zone of aeration contains spaces filled with both air and water, whereas the zone of saturation is where all available spaces are filled with water.
Which is the layer underground where all empty spaces are filled with a combination of air and water?
The correct answer is zone of AERATION and NOT zone of SATURATION :)
What is upper surface of the zone of saturation?
the zone of aeration
Which is the layer underground where there are no empty spaces for a water or air to fill in?
Impermeable Rock
How are the water table and the zone of saturation related?
The zone of saturation and the water table share two zones of ground water.
Is zone of saturation completely solid?
The zone of saturation would not be completely solid. However, the pore spaces would be filled with water.
Where is the water table located 1 at the top of the zone saturation 2 under the zone of saturation 3 in the layer of bedrock 4 below the layer of bedrock?
The water table is located at the top of the zone of saturation, where soil and rock are completely saturated with water. It is not generally found under the zone of saturation. The water table is typically above the layer of bedrock. It is usually located above the layer of bedrock, not below it.
What is the boundary between the zone of saturation and zone of aeration?
the answer is the water table.
What three major layers rainwater touch in order to reach an aquifer?
1.surface layer 2.zone of aeration 3.zone of saturation
What is the water within the zone of saturation?
Groundwater
