Across
- 3. Climate patterns, including temperature and humidity, influence the timing and amount of precipitation, as well as evaporation rates.
- 4. It plays a critical role in regulating water flow within watersheds.
- 5. Land use and land cover changes: Human activities such as urbanization, agriculture, deforestation
- 7. These _______ infrastructures can influence water storage, flood control, and water distribution within the watershed.
Down
- 1. The amount, intensity, and frequency of rainfall and snowfall directly affect the water input into the watershed
- 2. The shape and elevation of the land within the watershed determine how water moves across the landscape
- 6. Soil composition, texture, structure, and permeability influence the ability of water to infiltrate into the ground and be stored within the watershed. Sandy soils typically allow for faster drainage, while clay soils may hold water for longer periods
