  • D.surface rivers and their catchments

Answer: C

Correct answer: groundwater and its movement through rocks

Hydrogeology deals with water below the surface: where it is stored, how fast it moves, how aquifers recharge and how they are contaminated. It bears directly on engineering through seepage, dewatering, uplift and the inflow to be expected in a tunnel or an excavation.
