They can be used interchangeably. If you see both in the same text, then 'adverb' will probably refer only to those single-word references to time, manner, etc, many of which end in -ly (never, slowly, very, clumsily), while 'adverbial' will refer to longer phrases and clauses that serve the same purpose (under the table, when I sat down to eat, etc.)
