Layers of the Groundwater Model

Layers of the Groundwater Model

The groundwater model is a cross-sectional view of how water flows through various layers including an unconfined aquifer (water table), an aquitard (a layer that retards the flow of water), a confined artesian aquifer, an aquiclude (a layer that precludes the flow of water), and at the very bottom in fractured bedrock.
