When the water from soil surface seeps into soil then its Infilteration and when the

water
through the zone of aeration flows into the water table then that is called
percolation. As far as Seepage is concerned.. infiltration is strictly downward motion
in the direction of gravity while seepage can be in any direction.

Difference between seepage, infiltration and percolation.

Seepage - When water enters the ground surface at the upstream side of a retaining
structure like a dam and comes out at the downstream side.
Infiltration - When water enters the
ground surface but doesn't come out, thus increasing the moisture content of the
soil.
Percolation - When water enters the
ground surface and travels through the soil to finally join the ground water reserves.

No, permeability is a measure of how easily water moves through a given material.
Percolation is a word to describe the slow movement of water through permeable
soil or rock

percolation

Percolation is the process of a liquid slowly passing through a filter. It's how coffee is usually
made.

Percolation comes from the Latin word percolare, which means "to strain through."
Percolation happens when liquid is strained through a filter, like when someone
makes coffee. Drinking coffee can make you feel perky! Perky comes from the
word percolate, too, describing something that bubbles over. Percolation (a noun) is
what happens when anything percolates. Its usually coffee, but chemists use
percolation for all kinds of experiments.
