What is the difference between prompt interflow and delayed interflow?
- Prompt interflow has the least lag time, while delayed interflow has a longer lag time (correct)
- Prompt interflow has a longer lag time than delayed interflow
- Prompt interflow is surface runoff, while delayed interflow is groundwater flow
- Prompt interflow is a form of baseflow, while delayed interflow is a form of direct runoff
