How many processes are there in the water cycle?

Page 5: The Water Cycle. Anything written in yellow (SLOW down and pay attention) is useful information. You should write it in your notes IN YOUR OWN WORDS

Evaporation: The process of where a liquid (H2O) changes from a liquid state to a gaseous state.

Role:Required for clouds to form and precipitation to

occur.Oceans account for 80% of the water delivered as

precipitation.

What role does evaporation play in the water cycle?

Process of a gas cooling to a liquid state.Role:

Allows water vapor to form into a cloud.Clouds travel across land and deposit rain.

What is condensation?

is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapor that falls under gravity.

Role:Replenishes water levelsWaters cropsCools Temperatures/lowers pollen levels

Water is absorbed into the ground through the soil and underlying rocks.

Role:Water needs to be

absorbed in order to replenish the ground water and aquifers.

Excess rainfall can cause runoff and flooding.

What purpose does infiltration serve in the water cycle?

Runoff is the movement of landwater to the oceans, chiefly in the form of rivers, lakes, and streams

What is runoff?

process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots to small pores on the underside of leaves, where it changes to vapor and is released to the atmosphere.

Similar to sweatingAbout 10% of the moisture in the

atmosphere comes from transpiration. (from USGS)

What is transpiration?
