movement |
water can and can't travel through thing this called the permeability. the permeability is state witch it flows through. A aquitared blocks the flow of water.the permeability and aquitared are both determined of what things can go through what but the porosity is what allows the material to go through. |

rocks |
a aquifer is the permeant body of rock. a saturation zone is located right below the rock. When a aquifer is being filled a spring is released the rocks over flow on land. |

places water comes from |
there are many different places water can come from. when water comes from the ground its called well water. a artesian well is water flow under pressure. A Sinkhole is a area of surface drainage. The amount of water accumulates and can cause a water cave. the Water Table is when the water comes equal to the atmosphere. water goes through many different processes this is called the recharge rate. but the residence time is the amount of time water was ground water. |
