  • Understanding Surface Water: Definition, Runoff & Puddles
    Water on top of soil is called surface water.

    Here are some other terms that may be used:

    * Runoff: This refers to water that flows over the land surface, often after rainfall.

    * Puddles: These are small pools of water that collect on the surface.

    * Flooding: This occurs when water overtops the land surface, often due to heavy rainfall or a natural disaster.

    The specific term used will depend on the context and the amount of water present.
