  1. 3. A salt lake or saline lake is a landlocked body of water that has a concentration of salts.
  2. 4. a large natural stream of water flowing in a channel to the sea, a lake, or another such stream.
  3. 7. a large natural or artificial lake used as a source of water supply.
  4. 10. water added to the aquifer through the unsaturated zone after infiltration and percolation following any storm rainfall event.
  5. 11. areas where standing water covers the soil or an area where the ground is very wet.
  6. 12. is a thick subsurface layer of soil that remains frozen throughout the year, occurring chiefly in polar regions.
  7. 14. surface runoff of rainwater, landscape irrigation, and car washing created by urbanization.
  8. 15. occurs when water molecules change phase from liquid to vapor at the air–sea interface.
  9. 16. the total amount of water, including the water vapor, in an unsaturated soil.

  1. 1. water occurring in a natural environment that has more salinity than freshwater, but not as much as seawater.
  2. 2. contains water that is not salty, usually in contrast to the sea.
  3. 5. the draining away of water (or substances carried in it) from the surface of an area of land, a building or structure, etc.
  4. 6. water held underground in the soil or in pores and crevices in rock.
  5. 8. primarily the result of wind pushing on the surface of the water and density differences between water masses.
  6. 9. a mass of snow on the ground that is compressed and hardened by its own weight.
  7. 13. water that results from the melting of snow.
