interflows
Waters mix together
Interflows describes things that flow into or through each other, mixing or exchanging as they move.
Rivers interflow where tributaries meet.
Ideas interflow between disciplines.
The term appears in technical contexts—hydrology, data systems—where streams merge or pass between zones: Groundwater interflows with surface water during floods.
The noun interflow names this mutual flowing.
