The Water Cycle

The Water Cycle

Water cycles constantly repeats cycles during the water cycle between the atmosphere (troposphere), ground level and sea level. Sunlight and gravity guide the following systems, and help them to occur.

Evaporation Transpiration

Evaporation

Transpiration

  • Water enters the atmosphere through the form known as, water vapor through the processes of evaporation and transpiration (for example when plants release water vapor into the atmosphere).
  • Thermal energy (also known as a form of heat) from the sun allows water to evaporate.

Condensation or Crystallization

Condensation

Crystallization

  • If water vapour grows in the atmosphere, water droplets or ice crystals may form clouds.
  • Water vapour condensation can frequently occur on a surface in water falls or ice crystals. Dust particles (or some other particulate matter) act in the atmosphere as a condensation water surface.
  • These processes will evolve in the following ways on the earth's surface:
  • Dew occurs as vapour condenses onto a surface directly;
  • Frost occurs as water vapour transitions immediately from gas to ice crystals on the surface whether the condensation temperature is at or below the freezing point of ice.
  • Thermal temperature changes allow the water vapour to increase (evaporation) as a result the condensation (clouds, dew and frost) due to a sudden decrease in temperature.

Precipitation

Precipitation

  • After condensation (forming clouds) droplets of sea are depleted, depending on the environmental conditions such as, heavy rainfall hail, snow etc.
  • From the sky to the ground the temperature differences enables different types of precipitation. The area from the cloud to ground temperature.
  • Gravity is one of the precipitation driving factors.

Interception loss/ Infiltration

Infiltration is when the water is absorbed into the ground. Whilst, Interception loss is when the water is prevented from entering the ground by an object.

What is it?

What is the natural water cycle?

The natural water cycle is the continuous movement of water.
