Distribution of Water

Estimated Water Age Residence Time Oceans and 4000 years Lakes and 10 years Swamps1-10 years 2 weeks Soil Moisture2 wks to 1 yr Groundwater2 wks to 10,000 yrs Icecaps and glaciers10-1,000 yrs Atmospheric 10 days Source: Nace, 1971 Millions

Groundwater Age

Water Use in U.S.

Groundwater Between Grains Most groundwater in pore spaces between grains and clasts Below, pores saturated with groundwater Pores in upper parts generally unsaturated Top of saturated zone is water table a1

Infiltration Groundwater flow EvapotranspirationPrecipitation Surface runoff Wetlands and lakes Reach water table and saturated zone How Does Groundwater Accumulate? b1

Needed for groundwater to flow Change in elevation or pressure (head) Porosity Permeability

Porosity: Proportion of Open Space Which of the following have lower porosity and which have higher porosity? Crystals in granite fit tightly Clay particles do not fit tightly Rounded, sorted clasts do not fit tightly Poorly sorted clasts fit more tightly High porosity Low porosity Lower porosity High porosity

Permeability: Pores Connected So Fluids Flow Granite with many fractures Loosely cemented gravels Compacted clay (shale) Porous volcanic rock with isolated pores High permeability Low permeability
