They do not mean the same thing. Ground water occurs naturally beneath the Earth's surface, between the saturated soil and the rock. Underground water may be ground water, or it may be in man-made pipes laid underground.

What are two possible sources of groundwater contamination?

Two possible sources of groundwater contamination are agricultural runoff, which can carry pesticides and fertilizers into groundwater sources, and leaking underground storage tanks, which can release harmful chemicals into the groundwater.


Where does groundwater collect?

Groundwater is stored in, and moves slowly through, moderately to highly permeable rocks called aquifers. The word aquifer comes from the two Latin words, aqua, or water, and ferre, to bear or carry. Aquifers literally carry water underground. An aquifer may be a layer of gravel or sand, a layer of sandstone or cavernous limestone, a rubbly top or base of lava flows, or even a large body of massive rock, such as fractured granite, that has sizable cracks and fissures. In terms of storage at any one instant in time, groundwater is the largest single supply of fresh water available for use by humans.


Does surface water and ground water cause erosion and deposition?

Yes, both surface water and groundwater can cause erosion and deposition. Surface water, like rivers and streams, can erode sediment and carry it downstream, leading to deposition. Groundwater can also erode rock and soil as it flows through underground channels, contributing to erosion and resulting in sediment deposition in certain areas.

Can ground water carry sediment?

Yes, groundwater can carry sediment, though it typically does so in much smaller quantities compared to surface water. As groundwater moves through soil and rock layers, it can pick up fine particles and minerals, which can become suspended in the water. This process is influenced by factors like the speed of water flow and the composition of the surrounding materials. However, groundwater primarily transports dissolved minerals rather than larger sediment particles.
