Most of Earth's water is found in oceans, which cover most of the planet's surface. The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the Earth's surface, including evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and runoff. Evaporation occurs when water is heated by the sun and turns into water vapor, which rises up into the atmosphere and can form clouds and precipitation that falls back to Earth. [END SUMMARY]
The presentation shows how relative humidity affects other ecological parameters in meteorology. This also shows the relationship between and among the ecological parameters in meteorology
In meteorology, a cloud is an aerosol comprising a visible mass of minute liquid droplets, frozen crystals, or particles suspended in the atmosphere above the surface of a planetary body
Contrails are line-shaped clouds produced by aircraft engine exhaust or changes in air pressure, typically at aircraft cruise altitudes several miles above the Earth's surface. Contrails are composed primarily of water, in the form of ice crystals

Global warming occurs when the incoming solar energy exceeds that being radiated back into Space from the upper atmosphere in the form of infra-red radiation. Well over half the outward transmission of energy from the Earth’s surface through the troposphere occurs in the form of convection. There is often a significant barrier to convection within a “boundary” layer in the lowest two kilometres of the troposphere. This impediment can be reduced by several methods. One of these is arguably the vortex engine.

Water is hydrosphere is made up of all the water on Earth. This includes all of the rivers, lakes, streams, oceans, groundwater, polar ice caps, glaciers and moisture in the air (like rain and snow). The hydrosphere is found on the surface of Earth, but also extends down several miles below, as well as several miles up into the atmosphere. So, there is a need for study of water as a scarce resource.

MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL
Evaporation is a process by which water changed from the liquid or solid state into the gaseous state through the absorption of heat
It is always related to the loss of water from a free surface over a fixed time interval. Either direct observation or calculation based on the factors involved in the transfer of thermal energy.
One of the fundamental component of hydrological cycle
Essential requirements in the process are
The source of energy to vaporize the liquid water (solar or wind)
The presence of gradient of concentration between the evaporating surface and the surrounding air.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

2. Distribution of Water on Earth
• Most of the Earth’s water is in oceans.
• Oceans contain salt water and covers most of the earth’s
surface.
• Of the final 1%, only 4/10 of water comes from rivers, a major
source of the water we use.
Click on the graph to learn more!
3. Most of Earth’s water is in the oceans, which
cover most of Earth’s surface.
• Liquid water evaporates, turns into water vapor and back into a
liquid when cooled or as a solid if cooled below the freezing point
of water.
• Water vapor in the air moves and can form fog or clouds, and can
fall to Earth as rain, hail, sleet, or snow.
• The amount of fresh water located in rivers, lakes, underground
sources, and glaciers is limited and that its availability can be
extended by recycling and decreasing water use.
15. Evaporation
• The transformation of a liquid into a gas.
• The sun’s heat raising the temperature of
water and turning it into a gas.
• Water from earth’s rivers, and oceans that is
heated and travels through the air as a gas.
16. Stages of Evaporation
1. Water is warmed
by the sun
3. Water particles rise as a gas
or vapor
2. As the water
heats, it turns
into a gas.
17. Condensation
• Water vapor particles rising through the air.
• You can't see it, but air contains a lot of water.
• When air gets cold, the water vapor condenses into
clouds.
• Warm air can hold more water vapor than cold air.
– When warm air holds a lot of water vapor, the air feels sticky
and damp.
• The amount of water in the air is called humidity.
18. The Stages of Condensation
1. Water vapor particles rising
2. Particles forming groups
3. Water particles grouped to form bonds
19. Precipitation is…
• …the process by which
water falls back down to
earth as rain, snow, or
hail.
• Depending on the
temperature, water may
fall to earth as:
– liquid (rain),
– semi-solid (snow),
– solid (hail)
20. Factors affecting evaporation
• evaporation the escape of more energetic
molecules from the surface of a liquid.
• Relate evaporation to the consequent cooling.
• Demonstrate understanding of how
temperature, surface area and air flow over a
surface influence evaporation
23. Evaporation
The molecules of water are moving around at
different speeds, some fast, some slow.
speed of
molecule (m/s)
# of molecules at
a particular speed
Average
speed
24. Evaporation
If a molecule is at the surface, and moving fast
enough, it may escape the liquid. This is called
evaporation.
Freedom!
25. Evaporation
Since the average speed of the remaining molecules must
now be lower, the temperature of the liquid drops (since
temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of the
molecules).
Freedom!
32. Increasing the rate of evaporation
Increasing the air
flow over the
surface so that
molecules are
carried away
before they can
fall back into the
liquid
33. Increasing the rate of evaporation
Decreasing the
humidity of the
surrounding
atmosphere
34. Increasing the rate of evaporation
Decreasing the
humidity of the
surrounding
atmosphere to
stop water
molecules from
the atmosphere
entering the liquid.
35. Factors Influencing Evaporation
• Energy supply for vaporization
(latent heat)
– Solar radiation
• Transport of vapor away from
evaporative surface
– Wind velocity over surface
– Specific humidity gradient above
surface
• Vegetated surfaces
– Supply of moisture to the surface
– Evapotranspiration (ET)
• Potential Evapotranspiration (PET)
– moisture supply is not limited

36. Boiling
• Boiling is a cooling process
• Temperature is 100
degrees C no matter how
much heat we give the
water.
• Water boils as fast as it is
being warmed by heating.
• The steam carries away the
heat.
39. EVAPORATION
• Definition: Process by which water is changed from the liquid
or solid state into the gaseous state through the transfer of
heat energy (AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CHEMICAL, 1949).
• It occurs when some water molecules attain sufficient kinetic
energy to break through the water surface and escape into
the atmosphere (~ 600 cal needed to evaporate 1 gram of
water).
• Depends on the supply of heat energy and the vapor pressure
gradient (which, in turn, depends on water and air
temperatures, wind, atmospheric pressure, solar radiation,
etc).

60. Thermochemistry
• Thermodynamics is the science of the
relationship between heat and other forms of
energy.
• Thermochemistry is the study of the quantity of
heat absorbed or evolved by chemical reactions.
61. Energy
• There are three broad concepts of energy:
• Kinetic Energy is the energy associated with an
object by virtue of its motion.
• Potential Energy is the energy an object has by
virtue of its position in a field of force.
• Internal Energy is the sum of the kinetic and
potential energies of the particles making up a
substance.
We will look at each of these in detail.
62. Energy
• Internal Energy is the energy of the
particles making up a substance.
• The total energy of a system is the sum of its
kinetic energy, potential energy, and internal
energy, U.
UEEE pktot
63. Energy
• The Law of Conservation of Energy: Energy may
be converted from one form to another, but the
total quantities of energy remain constant.
The First Law of Thermodynamics:
You can’t get something
from nothing!
64. Heat of Reaction
• In chemical reactions, heat is often
transferred from the “system” to its
“surroundings,” or vice versa.
• The substance or mixture of substances under
study in which a change occurs is called the
thermodynamic system (or simply system.)
• The surroundings are everything in the vicinity
of the thermodynamic system.
65. Heat of Reaction
• Heat is defined as the energy that flows
into or out of a system because of a
difference in temperature between the
system and its surroundings.
• Heat flows from a region of higher
temperature to one of lower temperature;
once the temperatures become equal, heat
flow stops.
66. Heat of Reaction
• Heat is denoted by the symbol q.
– The sign of q is positive if heat is absorbed by
the system.
– The sign of q is negative if heat is evolved by
the system.
• Heat of Reaction is the value of q required to
return a system to the given temperature at
the completion of the reaction.
67. Heat of Reaction
• An exothermic process is a chemical
reaction or physical change in which heat is
evolved (q is negative).
• An endothermic process is a chemical
reaction or physical change in which heat is
absorbed (q is positive).
69. Heat of Reaction
• Exothermicity
– “out of” a system
Dq < 0
• Endothermicity
– “into” a system
Dq > 0

78. Law of Conservation of Energy
• The law of conservation of energy states that
energy cannot be created or destroyed, but
only changed from one form to another.
79. Hess’s Law
• Hess’s Law states that the heat change of a
reaction depends only on the initial and final
states of the reaction and is independent of the
route by which the reaction may occur.
• for a reaction described by a given equation, the
heat of reaction equals the sum of the heats of
formation of the products of the reaction less the
sum of the heats of formation of the reactants of
the reaction.
• ΔHr = ΔHf (products) - ΔHf (reactants)
80. ENERGY BALANCE
According to law of conservation of energy : it is always remain conserved.
So Energy is balanced
81. A Problem of energy balance
• Suppose a piece of iron requires 6.70 J of
heat to raise its temperature by one degree
Celsius. The quantity of heat required to

82. • In above problem, Energy added to the system
is calculated, and energy accumulated by the
system is found by the formula , and overall
energy of the system is conserved.
