The water table is the upper surface of groundwater, representing the boundary between saturated soil and unsaturated soil. Its location varies depending on factors such as rainfall, topography, and soil composition, typically found closer to the surface in wet areas and deeper in arid regions. Seasonal changes and human activities, such as pumping, can also affect its depth and stability.

Where is a perched water table in relation to its other water table?

A perched water table is located above the main water table. It forms when an impermeable layer, such as clay or rock, restricts the downward movement of water, causing water to accumulate above it. The perched water table can be found at a higher elevation than the main 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.
