Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lithology, or the study of the physical characteristics of rocks, is not directly a significant factor in determining whether precipitation will soak into the ground or run off. The other factors like slope steepness, vegetation, saturation level, and precipitation amount/duration directly influence infiltration and runoff.
