Bulk volume water (BVW) equals Φ × S<sub>w</sub>. In zones with the same pore type and geometry, BVW is a function of the height above the [[free water level]]. Above the transition zone, BVW is fairly constant. Below the transition zone, BVW is variable.
Bulk volume water (BVW) equals Porosity (Φ) × S<sub>w</sub>. In zones with the same pore type and geometry, BVW is a function of the height above the [[free water level]]. Above the transition zone, BVW is fairly constant. Below the transition zone, BVW is variable.
A [[Buckles plot]] is a plot of S<sub>w</sub> vs. [[porosity]]. Contours of equal BVW are drawn on the plot.
