Soil moisture zone - Water is held by
molecular attraction on soil particles.
Waters are “consumed” by plants and
evaporates directly back to atmosphere.
Saturated zone -
All the pore spaces are completely filled
with water groundwater.
The upper limit of this zone water table
Porosity
Pore or open spaces in rock
in percentage (%)
Permeability
The ability of rock to transmit fluid.
in debit m3/s
Groundwater Storage
(and movement)
Aquifer
Permeable rock or sediment that transmit
groundwater freely (aqua=water, fer=carry)
Aquitard
Impermeable layers that hinder or prevent
groundwater movement (aqua=water, tard=slow)

Q=KxAx(∂h)
Where
Q = debit
K = hydraulic conductivity
A = area coverage
∂h = water tabel difference
