The 13 pages that link to Surface runoff, each with the reason it gives.

• WatershedRelated: Runoff carries precipitation downhill into the streams that drain a watershed.

• Soil compactionRelated: Reduced infiltration can increase runoff from compacted surfaces.

• Water cycleRelated: It routes precipitation across land and back toward larger water bodies.

• Flash floodRelated: Rapid runoff gathers on slopes and channels, producing sudden increases in flow.

• Terrace farmingRelated: Terrace edges slow and redirect runoff that would otherwise gain speed downhill.

• Erosion controlRelated: Runoff can detach and carry soil, especially on exposed or sloping ground.

• Catchment areaRelated: Runoff carries water across the catchment toward channels and its outlet.

• Badlands National ParkRelated: Rainfall runoff cuts channels through the park’s soft, exposed sediments.

• CloudburstRelated: When rain falls faster than soil can absorb it, runoff rises rapidly.

• PuddleRelated: Rain becomes puddle inflow when it runs across an impermeable or saturated surface.
