An aquifer is an underground layer of rock or sediment that contains water, while the water table is the level below which the ground is saturated with water. Both aquifers and water tables play a key role in the availability and movement of groundwater.
The top level of groundwater in an aquifer is called the water table.
The aquifer layer in which all pores are filled with water is called a saturated aquifer. This means that the water table is at or near the surface and the aquifer is fully saturated with water.
The bedrock below an aquifer is called the water table. For example if a hole is dug into sand, very wet and saturated sand at shallow depth this would represent the aquifer and the level to which the water rises in this hole would be called the water table.
They all work together
Aquifer depths can vary greatly, ranging from a few feet to thousands of feet below the Earth's surface. The depth of an aquifer depends on various factors such as geological formations, water table levels, and regional hydrology.

People can obtain water from an aquifer by driling a well below the water table.

People can obtain water from an aquifer by drilling a well into the ground until it reaches the water table of the aquifer. A pump is then installed to lift the water to the surface for use. Proper management and monitoring of groundwater extraction is essential to ensure sustainable use of the aquifer's water resources.
