Across
  1. 7. The sum of all processes by which water moves from the land surface to the atmosphere
  2. 9. Basin A land area where all precipitation collects and flows downhill to a single point
  3. 11. Shed An area of land that drains or “sheds” water into a specific waterbody
  4. 13. The vast body of salt water covering over 70% of earths surface
  5. 15. the process in which a gas like water vapor turns into a liquid
  6. 17. Flow of water over the ground surface
  7. 19. The movement of water through the lower soil towards rivers, and groundwater flow
  8. 21. Relatively large and fixed body of water on or near the earths surface
  9. 22. The release of water vapor from plants and trees into the air
Down
  1. 1. The movement of water underground through porous soil, sand, and rock, driven by gravity and pressure differences
  2. 2. A visible mass of condensed watery vapour floating in the atmosphere
  3. 3. The process of water on the ground soaking into soil
  4. 4. Water released from clouds in the form of rain
  5. 5. The movement of water through the soil itself
  6. 6. The movement of water through porous soil and rock layers beneath the Earth's surface
  7. 8. The capacity of a material to allow water to pass through it
  8. 10. The solid surface of the earth
  9. 12. A natural steam of fresh water that flows on land or inside caves
  10. 14. Precipitation that does not reach the soil
  11. 16. Layer of gases that holds the water vapor
  12. 18. All plants and trees collectively, typically those in a specific region or area
  13. 20. The process that changes a substance from a liquid into a gas
