Across
  1. 2. [Output] The combined action of evaporation and transpiration
  2. 7. [Flows] A process by which water is moving downhill within the rivers
  3. 9. [Flows] The lateral movement of groundwater as it seeps slowly into the bed of the river (slowest flow)
  4. 10. [Output] A process of water vapour that escapes from the leaves of a living plant and enters the atmosphere
  5. 12. [Stores] The retention of raindrops by the leaves, branches, and stems of the vegetation
  6. 15. [Stores] Water stored underground in the cracks or joints of the permeable rocks
  7. 17. [Flows] A process of water that soaks or seeps into the soil
Down
  1. 1. [Output] A process by which water is moving downhill within rivers, into the sea
  2. 3. [Stores] Amount of water stored in the soil within the plant’s root zone
  3. 4. [Flows] The movement of water over the ground surface
  4. 5. [Stores] Water remaining on the ground surfaces which is easily accessible (eg. puddles, and ponds)
  5. 6. [Output] A process of liquid (rain)/solid (ice) is changed into gas (water vapour)
  6. 8. [Flows] A process of water which moves into saturated soil or rocks
  7. 11. [Flows] Water which either falls through gaps in the vegetation or drops from leaves, twigs, or stems
  8. 13. [Flows] Water which trickles along the twigs and branches, then finally down the main trunk
  9. 14. [Stores] Amount of water in the river which was collected from precipitation, surface runoff, groundwater, and throughfall
  10. 16. [Flows] Water moving laterally through the soil (moderate flow)
