SURFACE AND GROUNDWATER HYDROLOGY CHAPTER 3.1Online version PRINCIPLES OF WATERSHED/SURFACE HYDROLOGY by Grace Balahay 1 freshwater Written answer 2 other saline water Written answer 3 oceans Written answer 4 movement of precipitation across the land surface Written answer 5 land area which rain falls Written answer 6 Land area that contributes surface runoff to any point of interest. Written answer 7 Tract of land drained by a river and its tributaries Written answer 8 Rain falling on a watershed in quantities exceeding the soil or vegetation uptake Written answer 9 Lines separating the land surface into watersheds Written answer 10 Any body of water found on the Earth’s surface. Written answer 11 Land area where all surface water drains into a common water body. Written answer 12 Movement of water along the earth’s surface as a result of precipitation. Important for transportation, irrigation, water supply, hydropower, etc. Written answer 13 Movement of water along the earth’s surface as a result of precipitation. This includes runoff and overland flow Written answer 14 Draining or flowing off of precipitation from a catchment area through a surface channel enters into a stream channel. Represents the output form catchment in a given unit of time. Written answer 15 A thin sheet of water that flows over the land surface. Reaches first the stream channel Written answer 16 Part of the precipitation that infilters, moves laterally through upper crusts of the soil and returns to the surface at some locations away from the point of entry into the soil. Written answer 17 When water percolates into the ground as deep seepage and builds up the ground water table (GWT) Written answer 18 Hypothesized that overland flow occurred when the rainfall rate was higher than the infiltration rate of a soil. Written answer 19 Part of runoff which enters the stream immediately after the rainfall. It includes surface runoff, prompt interflow and rainfall on the surface of the stream. Delay time is less Written answer 20 Delayed flow that reaches a stream essentially as groundwater flow.
