hydrosphere
Across
- 2. vertical flow of cold, nutrient rich water to the surface
- 4. ranges to 1000m, very limited light
- 6. extends 200m down, supports most life
- 9. boundary between the soil and surface
- 11. disease causing organisms
- 12. freshwater found under Earth's surface
- 14. liquid to vapor into clouds
- 15. exceeds 4000m, very high pressure, no light
- 17. when excess nutrients are present, sudden explosion in algal blooms happen
- 19. water carries sediment through runoff
- 20. water returns to Earth's surface, rain/snow
Down
- 1. layers of rocks and soil that hold groundwater underground
- 3. pollution that occurs when there is a change in temperature
- 5. release of water vapor through plants
- 7. naturally occurring build up of nutrients
- 8. all the liquid on earth and above and below earth
- 10. water with human waste, food scraps, oils, chemicals
- 13. the contamination of water
- 16. warm surface water sinks
- 18. change in water from gas to liquid
