What is permeability?

• water

  soaks through the ground

  it becomes groundwater

• water

  stored below Earth’s

  surface

  space in between soil

  particles

• the materials ability to allow fluids to pass

What is saturation?

• a hole drilled into the zone of saturation

• when the ground cannot absorb any

  more water.

• the area where groundwater can be

  extracted

• the area where groundwater can be

  extracted
