Precipitation is the process of precipitating a substance from a solution.

Infiltration is the process by which water on the ground surface enters the soil.

Run off is the draining away of water from the surface of an area of land, a building or structure. Capillary water is define as water that remains in the soil after gravitational water is drained out.

Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers.

Or when a plant losses water in form of water vapour

Evapotranspiration is the sum of evaporation and plant transpiration from the Earth's land and ocean surface to the atmosphere.

Ground water is a Water that collects or flows beneath the Earth's surface, filling the porous spaces in soil, sediment, and rocks.

An aquifer is a body of saturated rock through which water can easily move.

A recharge area is a place where water is able to seep into the ground and refill an aquifer.
