1. The WATER CYCLE BY: FRANZ ABENOJAR 8-MANDELA SEPTEMBER 4, 2015

2. What is the water cycle?  The water cycle is an endless cycle that describes the existence and the movement of water on, in and above the earth.  It all starts with the water vapor, the process of changing liquid to gas then, goes above the atmosphere.

3. Water vapor ► First of all, it all starts in the ocean. Because of the sun, heats up the water and turns them into vapor.  Then, the vapor reaches to the atmosphere and then starts making rain.  The process is known as condensation, which means turns gas to water.  The process when the sun heats up the water and the formation of clouds.

4. Transpiration  The process by which moisture through plants from roots  Small pores on the underside of leaves  Changes to vapor  Released to atmosphere  Evaporation of water from plant leaves  Guttation

5. Precipitation ► Water released from clouds ► The types of precipitation are snow, rain, hail and sleet ► Condensed from vapor ► Formed by ice crystals in very cold places ► Pellets of frozen rain from cumulonimbus clouds ► Composed of rain and partially melted snow

6. Condensation  The process that gas cools down and forms to liquid.  The process forms the clouds.  The process makes the raindrops.  The process is responsible or ground-level fog.  In the air, it is very cold and high, then also makes fog.

7. Groundwater  Underground water  Cracks and spaces  Drinking water  >50% people drink groundwater in the United States  Almost everyone lives in rural areas  Irrigate crops  Deep and shallow water table  Heavy rains and melting snow causes the water table to rise  Water table falls  Important to human life

8. Surface Runoff  The flow of water that occurs when excess storm water, meltwater and other sources flows over the Earth’s surface.  Occurs when soil reaches full capacity because rain arrives more quickly than the soil that can absorb water  Overland flow occurs in surfaces before reaching a channel  Runoff on land areas is known as a watershed
