<pre>The use of seasonal here limits it to things that have a yearly cycle.
I would rather remove the 'seasonal' references .. something like</pre>
<pre>In Description: <i>Indicates that waterway or water body is intermittent.</i> </pre>
<pre>One could add the word <i>irregular</i> or <i>random</i> in brackets if helpfull?
In Key:intermittent: <i>The tag </i><i><tt style="background:#DDE;white-space:nowrap" dir="ltr"><strong class="selflink">intermittent</strong>=yes</tt></i><i> is used to indicate that a waterway (river, stream, etc.) or a water body (lake) has random dry and wet periods.</i>

The OED definition of 'intemittent' is 'that intermits or ceases for
a time; coming at intervals; operating by fits and starts'. To
intermit is 'to cease or stop for a time'.<br>
