Across
- 1. Largest reservoir of liquid freshwater
- 5. Narrow area on top a chain of hills or mountains
- 7. Liquid to a gas.
- 9. Heat causes the rock to expand and fracture
- 13. Grinding away of rock by other rock particles carried in water, ice, or wind
- 15. Steep rock face; vertical or nearly vertical slope
- 18. Breaking down of rocks and other materials
- 20. Narrow and deep low area that forms between hills or mountains; usually has a stream/river flowing through it; deeper than a valley with steeper and more narrow sides
- 21. Water moving into or through the surface of a landform
- 24. Water's movement across surface landforms
- 25. Area of land extending well above the surrounding terrain; typically has steep sides
- 28. Sediment is laid down in new locations
- 31. Breakup of rock caused by the expansion of freezing water in cracks and crevices
- 32. Liquid to a solid
- 33. Reservoir that is in the gaseous state
- 34. Solid to a liquid
- 36. Area of a glacier where more mass is gained than lost.
- 37. The force responsible for the flow of water
- 38. Narrow and deep low area that forms between hills or mountains; usually has a stream/river flowing through it; formed by water
- 39. Place where a river empties into another body of water
- 41. Small, solid pieces of material that come from rocks or living things
- 42. Largest reservoir of freshwater
Down
- 2. Anything that can hold water
- 3. Rock, sand, and soil are broken down and carried away
- 4. Ability for a liquid to pass through a substance
- 6. Gas to a liquid.
- 8. Largest reservoir
- 10. The point where a river begins
- 11. The bottom of a river
- 12. This occurs when water reaches the lowest point it can flow based on elevation
- 14. Flat and elevated landform with steep sides from a hill or mountain
- 16. Water in the atmosphere gets too heavy to stay suspended, it falls in the form rain, snow, hail, sleet, dew, or frost.
- 17. A ridge of till piled up along the front edge of a glacier.
- 19. The roots of a plant (typically a tree) wedge into a crack in a rock and, as the plant grows, splits the rock.
- 22. Amount of water vapor in the atmosphere
- 23. Natural connection of flowing water from one reservoir to another
- 26. Narrow and deep low area that forms between hills or mountains; usually has a stream/river flowing through it; formed by glacial cuts; flat at the bottom with steep, but smooth sides
- 27. Amount of open space an object has; could be between grains, cracks, or cavities in a layer of a substance
- 29. Large body of water surrounded by land; not as large as an ocean
- 30. Location on glacier where melting is faster than snow accumulation
- 35. The sides of a river
- 40. Area of land extending above the surrounding terrain
