- Water balance - In hydrology, a water balance equation can be used to describes the flow of water in and out of a system. A system can be one of several hydrological domains, such as a column of soil or a drainage basin.
- Monthly water balance model - Monthly water balance models had been studied since the 1940s.
- Water intoxication - Water intoxication (also known as hyperhydration or water poisoning) is a potentially fatal disturbance in brain function that results when the normal balance of electrolytes in the body is pushed outside of safe limits by a very rapid intake of water.
- Oxygen balance - Oxygen balance (OB, or OB%) is an expression that is used to indicate the degree to which an explosive can be oxidized. If an explosive molecule contains just enough oxygen to convert all of its carbon to carbon dioxide, all of its hydrogen to water, all of its sulfur to sulfur dioxide, and all of its metal to metal oxide with no excess, the molecule is said to have a zero oxygen balance.
- Sverdrup balance - The Sverdrup balance, or Sverdrup relation, is a theoretical relationship between the wind stress exerted on the surface of the open ocean and the vertically integrated meridional (north-south) transport of ocean water.
