− | Underpressure exists when a fluid pressure is lower than estimated from the normal hydrostatic fluid gradient for that depth at which it occurs. For this situation to exist, the fluid must be trapped within a rock unit. | + | Underpressure exists when a [[Normal hydrostatic pressure#Fluid pressure|fluid pressure]] is lower than estimated from the [[Normal hydrostatic pressure gradients|normal hydrostatic fluid gradient]] for that depth at which it occurs.
