| Domain | Definition |
Geography | Groundwater whose upper boundary is a(free)water table. Source: European Union. (references) |
| These terms are sometimes used as synonymous with ground water and sometimes as synonymous with subsurface water ; the free subsurface water in a zone of saturation, standing in or passing(=groundwater flow)through the soil and/or the underlying strata. Source: European Union. (references) | |
Hydrologic | Water within the earth that supplies wells and springs; water in the zone of saturation where all openings in rocks and soil are filled, the upper surface of which forms the water table. Also termed Groundwater. (references) |
Mining | A term that originally was applied only to water that occurs in the upper part of the zone of saturation under water-table conditions (syn. of unconfined ground water, or well water), but has come to be applied to all water in the zone of saturation, thus making it an exact syn. of groundwater.
