Water Cycle

The water cycle, also known as the hydrological cycle, is the continuous movement of water through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection. It is essential for maintaining Earth's water balance, supporting ecosystems, regulating climate, and providing fresh water for human consumption. Human activities such as pollution, deforestation, and climate change can negatively impact the water cycle.

Evaporation:
• The process where water from
oceans, lakes, rivers, and other
bodies turns into water vapor due to
heat from the sun.
• Plants also contribute through
transpiration.

Condensation:
As water vapor rises and cools in the
atmosphere, it turns into tiny droplets
that form clouds.

Precipitation:
When water droplets in clouds combine
and become heavy, they fall to the
Earth's surface as rain, snow or hail.

Collection:
• When precipitation occurs, not all water
makes it back to the oceans, lakes,
streams and rivers.
• Some water is soaked by the Earth. This
process is called percolation or
infiltration.

Importance of the Water Cycle:
• Maintains Earth's water balance.
• Supports ecosystems and agriculture.
• Regulates climate and weather patterns.
• Provides fresh water for human consumption.
• The water cycle is essential for life on Earth, ensuring that water
is continuously purified and redistributed across the planet.
