Passage: groundwater groundwater refers to seep into the ground and filled all the rock pore water. Until now, atmospheric water is the most abundant groundwater resources, is a part of the groundwater in the water cycle. Normal air will invade from the surface water, precipitation and underground lakes and rivers. Before re-emerge surface, these groundwater sometimes prolonged stay in the ground. Initially people feel incredibly, at our feet, "solid" land can actually have enough space to store so many water. However, a variety of groundwater storage space required. Loose sand and gravel between many particles, such as sand and gravel, pore space between them is the most common groundwater storage. From these particles waterbed it is very common, usually located below the soil invisible, carrying coarse sediment turbulent rivers once flowed where you can find traces of them. For example, coverage of North America, the great ice age gradually melts the ice, a lot of water flowing from there. The water will always carry some stones, gravel and sand, the particles will be precipitated as the water reducer, which is called glacial outwash. Hyundai also has outwash, despite the relatively small scale. Those who have to carry sand from rivers or streams flow to the relatively flat valley floor, along with sand and gravel to slow down the flow velocity gradually precipitation; water is usually fan-shaped diffusion, they carry sand will precipitate as smooth fan-shaped ramp. When rivers lakes and oceans when import will precipitate, these deposits originally in the lake or sea, but in the future rise of sea level fall or land, they will be distributed in the inland, usually several kilometers thick. Anywhere lowland region is probably the former riverbed, follow by soil cover and become what it is today. If those past riverbed and shoals are in the water table below, there will be a large number of groundwater immersed in sand and gravel between them. Above that are loose sediments, those rugged sediments, also has tens of thousands of dollars in order to accommodate the water pores. Because the initial gap between the particles are often not completely filled cements chemicals, and some particles probably when cured or cured after infiltration of groundwater dissolved; the results of these sandstones and form it eventually become porous as loose sand . Thus, regardless of the sediment is loose or solid, they have a certain space. Most crystalline rocks are very hard, but there are exceptions, the most common is basalt, which is a solidified lava, often filled with tiny bubbles, which become very porous. Porosity of the rock refers to the proportion which the space. But note that the porosity and permeability are different. Permeability is a measure of the degree of difficulty substances to water penetration, which depends on the individual and the size of the gap between the connected pores cracks. When moisture-laden sediment or rock sample is placed in a suitable dry environment, most of the water will drain, but there are still some of the water will continue to adhere to the solid surface. Either because of the surface tension, the water will evaporate immediately, leaving only completely dry samples. Therefore, the water content of the test sample can flow both dry water, but also not to drain water. Both the relative content of water due to the different types of rock or sediment to change, even if they have the same proportion of the pores, also depends on the pore size. If the porosity is large, which will form water droplets, which attract heavy enough to overcome the surface tension, it will flow away; but if small enough pores, the water will be like a film, as too light can not overcome the surface tension, thereby firmly attached to the pore surfaces.
