Streams and lakes do represent the intersection of the water
table with the surface in valley bottoms. The water table is the
layer under the earth that contains groundwater.

Definition1/12
Water tables are the underground boundary between the water saturated rock and soil layer and the unsaturated or dry rock and soil layer. Where a water table intersects the surface a lake, pond, river, stream, spring, etc. forms on the surface at the same level as the water table. A well is made by digging a hole down to below the water table at that location and the bottom of that hole will fill with water to the same level as the water table.

Where are the water tables located
Water tables are the underground boundary between the water saturated rock and soil layer and the unsaturated or dry rock and soil layer. Where a water table intersects the surface a lake, pond, river, stream, spring, etc. forms on the surface at the same level as the water table. A well is made by digging a hole down to below the water table at that location and the bottom of that hole will fill with water to the same level as the water table.
