  1. 1st step in cleaning dirty water. It's when chemicals are added that cause dirt particles to stick together
    Coagulation
  2. This word means the process of removing particles from water by allowing them to settle at the bottom of a tank
    Sedimentation
  3. When a solid immediately turns into a gas
    Sublimation
  4. Carbon dioxide is an example of this
    Greenhouse Gas
  5. This is a place where water collects and drains into a common body of water
    Watershed
  6. This term refers to the amount of heat needed to make something warmer
    Heat capacity
  7. This process of the water cycle causes vapour
    Evaporation
  8. A process in water treatment where clumps of dirt are formed and mixed to stick to each other
    Flocculation
  9. These places usually have moderate climates because of their proximity to oceans
    Coastal communities
  10. These are huge areas of ice that covers land at Earth's poles
    Polar Ice cap
  11. Water that has little to no salt in it
    Freshwater
  12. The process of water soaking into the ground
    Infiltration
  13. One of the last steps in the water treatment process. Involves adding chemicals to remove bacteria
    Disinfection
  14. This word refers to the average weather conditions over a period of at least 30 years.
    Climate
  15. What we call a long-term shift in the Earth's temperatures and climate
    Climate Change
  16. When a gas immediately turns into a solid
    Deposition
  17. The clumps that form when tiny particles stick together in water treatment
    Floc
  18. Rain, snow, sleet, and hail are examples of this
    Precipitation
  19. When glaciers melt, what happens to sea levels?
    Sea Levels rise
  20. Material used in a filter to help clean water
    Filter Media
  21. A human activity that can play a role in ice melting
    Deforestation
  22. This decomposes naturally, like food waste and paper
    Organic Waste
  23. Watering crops using pipes/sprinklers.
    Irrigation
  24. Water that evaporates from any part of plants/vegetation
    Transpiration
  25. The ocean is called this because it absorbs a lot of heat
    Heat sink
  26. When an action causes a result that goes and makes the action even stronger than before
    Feedback loop
  27. This word refers to environmental conditions that change from day to day
    Weather
  28. Wind is the simpler term for this
    Convection currents
  29. The process of a gas turning into a liquid because of the loss of thermal energy
    Condensation
  30. Water that flows over the land’s surface instead of being absorbed into the ground
    Runoff
  31. The general term for water in the ground
    Groundwater
  32. This refers to a group of natural or man-made parts that work together to move, store, and clean water
    Water System
  33. The term for the upper level of groundwater in an area. It rises and falls
    Water table
  34. This does not decompose well in nature, like plastic
    Inorganic Waste
