Across
- 2. the deposition of sediments can fill in low-lying areas
- 7. prolonged periods of abnormally low precipitation that can affect the water table
- 11. has an impermeable layer as its top layer and does not allow infiltration of water from above
- 12. has pore spaces filled with air
- 13. the rate that water soaks into the ground
- 14. measures how well fluid pass-through material
- 18. permeable layer as its top layer and allows infiltration of water from above
- 19. time the amount of time something stays in a location
Down
- 1. surface runoff that flows downward
- 3. stream-filled with woody plants, such as trees and bushes, sitting in several feet of water
- 4. providing food and water for many species of organisms
- 5. temporary pools of water that are filled in the spring from rain and surface runoff
- 6. has pore spaces filled with water
- 8. a high point topographically where runoff flows in opposite directions into two neighboring watersheds
- 9. an area that gets flooded
- 10. holding as much water or moisture as can be absorbed
- 15. stream-filled places that have a high-levels of biodiversity
- 16. the speed it takes for removed water to be replaced by new water infiltration
- 17. usually form in lake basins that drain poorly and are filled with precipitation
