GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The upper limit of the saturated zone may be thought of as the water table (it is shown as a dashed line on the diagram below). The zone above the water table, where pore spaces contain both air and water, is known as the unsaturated zone.

Detailed explanation-2: -The water table is the upper surface of the zone of saturation. The zone of saturation is where the pores and fractures of the ground are saturated with water. It can also be simply explained as the depth below which the ground is saturated.

Detailed explanation-3: -Water table, also called groundwater table, is the upper level of an underground surface in which the soil or rocks are permanently saturated with water.
