Clues

  • Hot and cold air meet in the mid-latitude zone which causes the hot air to rise and the cold air to sik. This hot air rises - then it cools, condenses forms clouds and rains (7, 8)
  • Mainly in the Tropics where the Sun rays are most concentrated. Water evaporates - then it rises - then it cools, condenses forms clouds and rains (12, 8)
  • Presence of mountains causes air to rise - then it cools, condenses forms clouds and rains. (6, 8)
  • The area of land drained by the river and all its tributaries. AKA catchment area (8, 5)
  • The downward movement of water that seeps into soil/porous rock (12)
  • The movement of water with in the soil sideways, towards the river (11)
  • The water lost through combined effects of evaportation and transpiration (18)
  • When plants prevent rainfall from directly reaching the ground (12)
  • When water flows over the surface of the ground (7, 6)
  • When water flows over the surface of the ground (8, 4)
