  • closed systems
    only energy can leave the system not matter
  • open system
    matter and energy can leave
  • dynamic equilibrium
    a sate of balance between inputs and outputs
  • positive feedback loop
    the change is amplified, moving the system further from dynamic equilibrium
  • negative feedback
    change brings that system back to its original state
  • wetted perimeter
    where there is contact between land and water
  • cascading systems
    energy and matter is transferred from one system to another
