Groundwater separated from atmospheric pressure by relatively impermeable material is termed confined groundwater. When such zones are penetrated by wells, the water rises above the point at which it was first found because a confined aquifer is under pressure exceeding that of atmospheric pressure. Confining beds vary in permeability and, hence, in their ability to confine artesian aquifers.
