Figure 39.  Diagrams illustrating surface water-groundwater interaction, including (A) a gaining stream, (B) a losing stream in which surface water percolates downward and laterally to the water table, and (C) a losing stream that is “disconnected” or “detached” from the underlying aquifer; this scenario typically occurs only in arid environments.
