Match the hydrologic term to its definition. surface runoff

subsurface runoff

groundwater runoff

groundwater discharge

ground water returns back to land

falling rainwater that gets absorbed into the soil

falling rainwater that flows over the ground

water that percolates into the aquifer

Explanation:

Surface runoff: falling rainwater that flows over the ground.

Subsurface runoff: the water that infiltrates in the vadose zone; an example is falling rainwater that gets absorbed into the soil

Groundwater runoff: describes water pulled by gravity across land's surface, replenishing groundwater and surface water as it percolates into an aquifer.

Groundwater discharge: this describes movement of groundwater from the subsurface to the surface i.e. ground water returns back to land.
