  2. Tulare Lake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulare_Lake

    Tulare Lake was the largest of several lakes in its lower basin. Most of the Kern River's flow first went into Kern Lake and Buena Vista Lake via the Kern River and Kern River Slough southwest and south of the site of Bakersfield. If they overflowed, it was through the Kern River channel northwest through tule marshland and Goose Lake, into ...

  3. Spring (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(hydrology)

    The forcing of the spring to the surface can be the result of a confined aquifer in which the recharge area of the spring water table rests at a higher elevation than that of the outlet. Spring water forced to the surface by elevated sources are artesian wells. This is possible even if the outlet is in the form of a 300-foot-deep (91 m) cave.

    Lake Shala, in the East African Rift Valley. A soda lake or alkaline lake is a lake on the strongly alkaline side of neutrality, typically with a pH value between 9 and 12. They are characterized by high concentrations of carbonate salts, typically sodium carbonate (and related salt complexes), giving rise to their alkalinity.

  8. Sheet flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_flow

    The concentration of particles usually spreads out in a straight line, and the Rouse distribution works in the water column above the sheet-flow layer where the particles are less concentrated. However, velocity distribution formulas are still being refined to accurately describe particle velocity profiles in steady or oscillatory sheet flows. [2]
