What is water runoff?
Runoff water is the water flow that happens when soil is unfiltered to full capacity and all the extra water such as rain or melted water
What does issues mean on an ordnance survey map?
A point where water issues from the ground, eg. a spring.
Can water flow uphill?
Water can flow up hill if there is some sort of machine that is able to pull it. Water does not naturally flow up hill it always flows downstream due to gravity.
What is mean by fitting of bathroom?
Fitting of bathroom is the process of setting all kinds of water points like shower, basin and other water points for controlling the flow and temperature of water.
What is a wetland an area of land where the surface water of ground water covers or saturates the ground for long periods of time?
A Marsh
What does Ground flow mean?
Ground water is the water that occupies pore and void space below the surface of the earth. This water will flow if their is a suitable pathway (e.g. a porous and permeable rock forming an aquifer) from a region of high to low hydraulic head.
When does surface water become ground water?
When the ground water flow out of the earth surface as a form of spring.
What is the difference between a spring a?
spring is water in motion, that is recharged by ground water.it is fed by only any one kind of ground water flow i.e local, intermediate or regional. lake is stagnant water recharged by the ground water where three types of ground water flow meet.
What is the difference between lake and a spring?
spring is water in motion, that is recharged by ground water.it is fed by only any one kind of ground water flow i.e local, intermediate or regional. lake is stagnant water recharged by the ground water where three types of ground water flow meet.
How does water flow on ground?
Water flows on the ground by following the path of least resistance, typically downhill or towards lower elevations. Factors such as gravity, slope, and surface material influence the direction and speed of water flow. In urban areas, drains and man-made channels can also guide the flow of water.
What does run-off mean in geography?
Where water that has fallen from the clouds goes down the surface of a hill/mountain and goes into a river
What does runnel mean?
A narrow channel in the ground for liquid to flow through.
How high should a rain barrel be off the ground to optimize water flow and pressure?
A rain barrel should be placed at least 2-3 feet off the ground to optimize water flow and pressure.
What does through flow mean in the water cycle?
Through flow in the water cycle refers to the horizontal movement of water through soil and rock layers. It occurs when precipitation infiltrates the ground and moves laterally before reaching a body of water like a river or lake. Through flow plays a crucial role in groundwater recharge and the overall movement of water within watersheds.
Why would it flood if there is a lot of rain and it goes down valleys fast?
Under normal conditions water flow in = water flow out. When abnormal conditions such as previously wet ground, no ground cover vegetation, an impediment to water flow in the valley exist the design conditions are exceeded and water backs up creating flood conditions.
What does the ground slopes away mean?
When the ground slopes away, it means that the surface of the land or terrain is inclined or slanted downward, typically leading to a lower elevation or downhill direction. This can affect water drainage and may influence the flow of water or objects on the ground.
Where does water flow once it reaches the ground?
Water that reaches the ground can flow into several directions depending on the topography and the presence of natural drainage systems. It can seep into the ground and replenish groundwater reserves, flow towards rivers or lakes, evaporate back into the atmosphere, or be absorbed by vegetation. Ultimately, water moves through the hydrological cycle, transitioning between different reservoirs on Earth.
