GENERAL GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -This is known as surface runoff. Other precipitation seeps into the ground and is stored as groundwater.

Detailed explanation-2: -Surface runoff (also known as overland flow) is the flow of water occurring on the ground surface when excess rainwater, stormwater, meltwater, or other sources, can no longer sufficiently rapidly infiltrate in the soil.

Detailed explanation-3: -The water that flows across Earth’s surface is called runoff. Eventually, runoff can enter bodies of water. Surface Water and Groundwater.

Detailed explanation-4: -Runoff is precipitation that does not soak into the soil but instead moves on the Earth’s surface toward streams. Streamflow is water moving across the Earth’s surface in streams. Evaporation refers to water that changes from a liquid to a gas and moves from the Earth’s surface back into the atmosphere.
