ater cycle is the continuous process of water moving from the
Earth's surface to the atmosphere. It is a complex system that
Winvolves many processes apart from evaporation, precipitation,
and condensation. Learn how water moves in natural processes in this
illustration.
COLD REGIONS
(ARCTICS)
(movement of water in
the atmosphere)
(ice crystals fall off onto
(evaporation of snow) the surface)
(water evaporating from
a plant’s surface)
(water vapor freezing)
(snow flowing from mountain
surfaces onto streams)
(movement of water between the soil and rocks)
(roots absorbing water)
(slow passage of water to
the soil that seeps it)
