- 6. a device used for raising and lowering boats, ships and other watercraft between stretches of water different levels on river and canal waterways.

- 4. usually built to preserve the existing uses of the shoreline and to protect the slope as defense against erosion
- 9. a cyclic water pump powered by hydropower
- 11. an excavation or structure created in the ground by digging, driving, boring, or drilling to access groundwater in underground acquifers.
- 12. the most common and traditional method of obtaining groundwater in rural areas of the developing world
- 14. a decline in land-surface elevation caused by removal of subsurface support which is a result from a variety of human activities.
