Common Measures

• Saturated and Unsaturated zone depth
• Slope of water table
• Moisture
• Specific Yield or (volume released/saturated
  volume)
• Porosity (or void space)
• Permeability or (rate of movement in the ground)
• Infiltration (or rate or movement from surface to
  ground)
• SAR (sodium adsorption ratio)
