bathymetry → batimetrija
Bathymetry (from the Greek word bathus, deep) is the science of measuring the depths of the oceans, seas, lakes, etc. or the topographic maps of the sea floor that result from such measurements. Bathymetric charts are designed to present accurate, measurable description and visual presentation of the submerged terrain.
hydrosphere → hidrosfera
Hydrosphere (from the Greek for water sphere) is a discontinuous layer of water on, under, and over the Earth's surface. It includes all liquid and frozen surface waters, groundwater held in soil and rock, and atmospheric water vapour. Water continuously circulates between these reservoirs in what is called the hydrologic cycle, which is driven by energy from the Sun.
