Pohjavesiväylät
Pohjavesiväylät, also known as groundwater conduits or underground water pathways, refer to the natural channels and interconnected pores within the ground through which groundwater flows. These flow paths are crucial for the movement and storage of groundwater within aquifers. Their formation and characteristics are influenced by geological factors such as the type of soil and rock, their porosity, and permeability. Different types of geological formations create varying pohjavesiväylät, from large, open fractures in bedrock to intricate networks of pores in sand and gravel deposits.
The concept of pohjavesiväylät is fundamental to understanding groundwater hydrology. It helps explain how water infiltrates
