riverine and lacustrine terrain (land) Explanation: Možda nešto ovako... Ground water is present in virtually all landscapes. The interaction of ground water with surface water depends on the physiographic and climatic setting of the landscape. For example, a stream in a wet climate might receive ground-water inflow, but a stream in an identical physiographic setting in an arid climate might lose water to ground water. To provide a broad and unified perspective of the interaction of ground water and surface water in different landscapes, a conceptual landscape (Figure 2) is used as a reference. Some common features of the interaction for various parts of the conceptual landscape are described below. The five general types of terrain discussed are mountainous, riverine, coastal, glacial and dune, and karst. RIVERINE TERRAIN In some landscapes, stream valleys are small and they commonly do not have well-developed flood plains (area R of the conceptual landscape, Figure 2) (see Box I). However, major rivers (area V of the reference landscape, Figure 2) have valleys that usually become increasingly wider downstream. Terraces, natural levees, and abandoned river meanders are common landscape features in major river valleys, and wetlands and lakes commonly are associated with these features. Riverine: 1. Relating to, formed by, or resembling a river. 2. Relating to a system of inland wetlands and deep-water habitats associated with nontidal flowing water, characterized by the absence of trees, shrubs, or emergent vegetation Lacustrine: 1. Relating to lakes. 2. Relating to a system of inland wetlands and deep-water habitats associated with freshwater lakes and reservoirs, characterized by the absence of trees, shrubs, or emergent vegetation.
