Across
  1. 7. maximum particle size
  2. 10. pattern: commonly encountered drainage pattern
  3. 12. load: streams carry dissolved substances
  4. 14. velocity: frictional force combined with the buoyant force exactly balance the gravitational force
  5. 16. slow flow
  6. 17. leaping movement of sand
  7. 19. separate from the drainage basin of another by a imaginary line
  8. 24. flat area about level with top of the channel
  9. 25. fast flow
  10. 26. tangled networks
  11. 29. basin: land area that contributes water to a river system
Down
  1. 1. when streams diverge from a central area likes pokes from the hub of a wheel
  2. 2. place where the ground slopes up/down
  3. 3. load: fine particles suspended in water
  4. 4. level: most streams is global sea level
  5. 5. loop-like bend in a stream channel
  6. 6. quantity of water passing by a point on the steamboat
  7. 8. absorbed by plants, which the release it into the atmosphere
  8. 9. maximum load
  9. 11. bank:river cliff
  10. 13. cycle: unending circulation of H2O
  11. 15. the rate of rainfall exceeds earth's ability to absorb
  12. 18. pattern: a rectangular pattern in which tributary streams are nearly parallel to one another
  13. 20. process by which liquid water changer into water vapour
  14. 21. gen. term for sediment deposited by streams
  15. 22. and corner frequency
  16. 23. pattern: exhibits many right angle bends
  17. 27. bars:arcuate deposit of sand along the in inside of bend
  18. 28. load: course particles move along streambed
