This reservoir holds about 97% of the world's water

This line marks the height of water in an aquifer. It rises as the aquifer is recharged and it lowers as the aquifer is drained.

Water becomes a gas in this "ation" process

Local these cause waves, while global these cause surface currents

Sodium Chloride is a fancy word for this stuff that makes up about 3.5% of the ocean's mass

This is where you will find the majority of Earth's fresh water

While agriculture irrigation is the #1 use for groundwater worldwide, in the average US household, this device uses the most water per day.

This "ation" forms clouds and the water dripping from your cold beverage

When the Moon, Earth, and Sun are all aligned, we get this type of tide

An increased amount of this gas in the atmosphere is responsible for lowering the pH of our rain and our oceans

Animals must be adapted for low oxygen saturation to live in these wetlands that are recognizable by their trees and vines

A good aquifer must have porosity, the presence of holes, and this, interconnectivity between those holes

Some of the water found in runoff comes from snowmelt, most of the rest comes from this "ation"

The Coriolis Effect, or the deflection of currents traveling north and south, is caused by this global phenomenon

At a confluence of two streams, the smaller stream that feeds into the larger is called a this

This is a body of water that lacks an outlet and typically lacks an aphotic zone

One of these can be found where the groundwater intersects with the surface. They can make great natural saunas when heated by geothermal energy!

Surface water becomes groundwater through this "ation." How sneaky!

Thermohaline circulation occurs when surface currents bring warm waters to the poles, cooling it off and increases the water's this, causing it to sink.

This is a location where cold, dense water surges up and brings lots of nutrients from the ocean floor with it

A salt marsh is an example of this type of reservoir, where fresh and salt water mix to form brackish water.

Overuse of our groundwater can result in the surface lowering, also known as this

When humans lose water through their skin it's perspiration. When plants lose water through their leaves it's this "ation"

Because of the Coriolis Effect, currents move in these spiral patterns

These are the natural or man-made barriers on the banks of streams that prevent flooding
