2 Selecting the lucky competitor Rules: We will do this in quarterfinals, semifinals, and final round. So I need volunteers. Face away from the screen. I will read the question. The first to stand up gets the first guess.

3 Selecting the lucky competitor Lightning Round Quaterfinals : What type of a load dominates a stream that looks muddy?

4 Selecting the lucky competitor Lightning Round Quaterfinals : In an impermeable landscape, you would expect to see what type of stream flow?

5 Selecting the lucky competitor Lightning Round Quaterfinals : What is loess?

6 Selecting the lucky competitor Lightning Round Quaterfinals : when accumulation > ablation, what would happen to the snout of the glacier?

7 Selecting the lucky competitor Lightning Round Semifinals : Oxbow lakes indicate what happened?

8 Selecting the lucky competitor Lightning Round Semifinal : How can sorting be used to distinguish a debris-flow deposit from a stream flood?

9 Selecting the lucky competitor Lightning Round Final: Locate the Sahel on the globe
