Suggestions to consider for the article "Surficial aquifer" -	It could be helpful to differentiate between the relationship to the landscape of the unconfined aquifer in contrast to confined. -	Discussion of the aquifer’s contribution to water features in the landscape due to seepage/discharge also defines how surface aquifers are integrated within a larger system. -	Consider the different types of surface aquifer, this article seems to only discuss semi-consolidated. See USGS for more information. https://water.usgs.gov/ogw/aquiferbasics/uncon.html -	The article references ancient time periods as the source of aggregates hosting surface aquifers. However, aquifer formation is an ongoing process up to the present day, due to processes such as alluvial deposition. -	Apart from a brief mention of Georgia and South Carolina, the article exclusively focuses on aquifer types specific to Florida, with some examples from that region also. However, surface aquifers of various types are found in many other places both in the US and worldwide; this article does not convey that. Another possibility could be to        rename the article, to denote that it is focusing on aquifer types specific to Florida. -	Consider that surface aquifers are not only replenished by streams: interflow, runoff, and simple gravity water from the rain directly overhead the aquifer would also be        contributing factors.
