Difference between Aquifer and Water well

Aquifer vs. Water well

An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures or unconsolidated materials (gravel, sand, or silt). A water well is an excavation or structure created in the ground by digging, driving, boring, or drilling to access groundwater in underground aquifers.

Similarities between Aquifer and Water well

Aquifer and Water well have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Artesian aquifer, Groundwater, Groundwater pollution, Hydrogeology, Pump, Soil salinity, Spring (hydrology), Water table, Well drainage.

Artesian aquifer

An artesian aquifer is a confined aquifer containing groundwater under positive pressure.

Groundwater pollution

Groundwater pollution (also called groundwater contamination) occurs when pollutants are released to the ground and make their way down into groundwater.

Hydrogeology

Hydrogeology (hydro- meaning water, and -geology meaning the study of the Earth) is the area of geology that deals with the distribution and movement of groundwater in the soil and rocks of the Earth's crust (commonly in aquifers).

Soil salinity

Soil salinity is the salt content in the soil; the process of increasing the salt content is known as salinization.
