The Water Cycle
The document discusses key components of the water cycle including condensation, evaporation, precipitation, snow, hail, rain, surface runoff, transpiration, and accumulation. Surface runoff occurs when water from rain, snowmelt, or other sources flows over land and is a major part of the water cycle. Plants release water vapor through transpiration while accumulation refers to a gradual build up of something over time.

It explains that the sun causes evaporation of water which condenses and falls as precipitation like rain or snow and runs off surfaces, completing the cycle.
The water cycle greyhound
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Water is evaporated from bodies of water and transpired by plants, becomes vapor and condenses into clouds, and falls back to the Earth's surface as precipitation such as rain, snow, sleet or hail which is then absorbed by the ground to replenish bodies of water, thus repeating the cycle.

Water Cycle
The water cycle involves the continuous circulation of water between the earth's surface and the atmosphere. Water is evaporated from surfaces and transpired by plants into the atmosphere as water vapor. As the vapor rises, it condenses into clouds and falls as precipitation back to the earth's surface, where it collects as groundwater, runoff in streams and rivers, and in oceans, completing the cycle.
Water, Water Everywhere, Nor Any Drop To Drink
The document summarizes the water cycle in three main steps:
1) Evaporation occurs when sun heats water, turning it into vapor which rises into the sky as clouds.
2) Condensation happens when the vapor in clouds cools and condenses back into liquid water droplets.
3) Precipitation occurs when gravity pulls the water droplets back down to Earth as rain, snow, sleet or hail depending on conditions. The water then either accumulates on the ground or infiltrates underground, completing the cycle.

The hydrological cycle
The hydrologic cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above and below the Earth's surface, changing states between liquid, vapor, and ice. Water moves from rivers to oceans through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, runoff, and subsurface flow. These processes include rain, snow, infiltration into the ground, surface runoff, evaporation into the air, storage, and extraction for human use as the water flows across land and through the atmosphere.
Precipitation
This science document discusses precipitation. It defines precipitation as water that falls to Earth's surface, occurring when water vapor condenses into liquid or solid form. The water can fall as rain, snow, sleet, or hail as water droplets in clouds collide and stick together, growing too large to remain airborne. Precipitation collects in bodies of water, soaks into the ground as groundwater, or falls back into oceans as part of the water cycle.

Science Aftershock
Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes that typically occur following a large main shock earthquake as the Earth's plates adjust to the movement caused by the initial quake. They are common in areas with high earthquake activity like China and California. While typically smaller than the main shock, aftershocks can still cause damage and are capable of breaking buildings, roads, and bridges in the affected area.

Precipitation
Precipitation forms when water vapor in clouds condenses around particles and becomes too heavy to remain suspended. It can fall as rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow, or hail depending on temperature. Rain forms below freezing when water droplets freeze on contact. Sleet forms when rain falls through below freezing air and freezes into ice pellets before hitting the ground. Snow forms when water vapor deposits directly onto nuclei as ice crystals below freezing through deposition. Hail forms in thunderstorms when ice crystals are carried up and down in the storm, accumulating concentric layers.

Water cycle
The document summarizes the water cycle, which is a continuous process where water evaporates from surfaces, rises into the air as vapor, condenses to form clouds, and falls back to earth as precipitation. It then may evaporate or transpire from plants again. The water cycle consists of evaporation, condensation, sublimation, precipitation, transpiration, runoff, and infiltration. Precipitation occurs when clouds become too full and water falls as rain, snow, sleet, freezing rain or hail depending on temperature. The water then either runs over the ground as runoff or soaks into the soil in infiltration.

This document defines and describes various forms of precipitation including drizzle, rain, glaze, rime, snow, hail, sleet, and others. It explains that precipitation occurs when the atmosphere becomes saturated with water vapor causing it to condense and fall under gravity. The various forms are then described in more detail. Types of precipitation are also outlined including cyclonic, convective, and orographic precipitation which result from different atmospheric lifting mechanisms.
Water cycle.pdf
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, in, and above the Earth. Energy from the sun drives the water cycle by evaporating water from oceans, lakes, and vegetation into water vapor in the air through evaporation and transpiration. Water vapor condenses into clouds and precipitation falls to the ground as rain or snow through condensation. Water re-enters oceans and lakes through surface runoff and underground streams, where it will again evaporate and continue the cycle. The water cycle is essential for life on Earth and influences climate and weather patterns.

Precipitation, The Hydrosphere and Hydrologic Cycle ENM 142 Lecture 4.pptx
This document discusses precipitation, the hydrosphere, and the hydrologic cycle. It defines precipitation as water released from clouds in various forms such as rain, snow, or hail. It is an important part of the water cycle as it delivers atmospheric water to the Earth. The hydrosphere is defined as all the water on a planet, including surface water, groundwater, and atmospheric water vapor. The hydrologic cycle describes how water moves through the hydrosphere, evaporating from oceans into the atmosphere, condensing into clouds, falling as precipitation, collecting in rivers and lakes, and eventually returning to the oceans to restart the cycle.
The Water Cycle
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. The sun evaporates water from oceans, lakes, and soil, which rises into the air as water vapor. Clouds form as vapor condenses, and precipitation falls as rain or snow and returns to Earth's surface, completing the cycle. Some precipitation soaks into the ground to replenish groundwater stores, while the rest flows outward across land or underground as runoff to return to oceans, from which evaporation begins again.
Grade 2 the water cycle
The water cycle describes how water is recycled on Earth through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Water evaporates from bodies of water into vapor and rises into the air, condenses to form clouds, and precipitates back down to the Earth's surface as rain, snow, or other forms, where it is collected in bodies of water once more to repeat the cycle.
Lesson different forms of water
Groundwater is found underground in soil and rock cracks, while evaporation turns water into vapor due to heat. Condensation is when vapor turns back into liquid, and precipitation occurs when water is released from clouds as rain, snow or hail. Other forms of water include humidity in the air, snow as ice crystals, hail as ice and snow balls, dew as drops on surfaces at night, fog as low clouds reducing visibility, and frost as ice crystals on surfaces below freezing.
Cloud seed
The document discusses cloud seeding, which is the process of introducing particles into clouds to alter precipitation processes. It provides background on future water stress and India's vulnerability. Cloud seeding can be used to induce rain or snow through static, dynamic, and hygroscopic seeding methods. Materials used include silver iodide and dry ice to seed cold clouds, and salts to seed warm clouds. The goal is to increase the number of ice crystals or water droplets through heterogeneous nucleation. India has conducted cloud seeding experiments with reported increases in rainfall. Applications include hail suppression and hurricane modification.

Precipitation
Precipitation occurs when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses and falls to the ground under gravity. There are several forms of precipitation including rain, snow, hail, sleet, drizzle, glaze and rime. Rain is liquid water droplets that fall from clouds. Snow is crystalline ice flakes. Hail consists of balls or lumps of ice. Sleet is smaller balls of ice. Precipitation can occur through cyclonic, convective or orographic lifting of air masses.
The hydrological cycle
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Water evaporates from oceans, lakes, and vegetation and rises into the atmosphere. It condenses to form clouds and precipitates as rain or snow. Precipitation that falls on land either infiltrates soil and recharges groundwater, flows overland as surface runoff returning to oceans, or is intercepted by plants. Ice also plays a role, storing water as snow and glaciers that slowly melt. The cycle continually repeats as water is recycled and redistributed around the globe.
Forms of Condensation and Precipitation
Cloud formation occurs through adiabatic cooling or lifting of air parcels to their dew point temperature. Clouds are classified based on their height and form. High clouds like cirrus are made of ice crystals while low clouds like stratus are uniform layers near the surface. Fog forms through different cooling processes like radiation, advection, or evaporation. Precipitation forms through the Bergeron process using ice crystals or collision-coalescence of water droplets. Rain, snow, sleet, hail, and freezing rain are different types of precipitation. Weather modification techniques like cloud seeding are used to artificially influence precipitation and other weather phenomena.
Hydrologic precipitation
Precipitation is the natural process of conversion of atmospheric water vapour into water. The water falls(comes down) in the form of a rainfall or snow fall. The term precipitation is also used to refer rainfall. It is term and includes all forms of falling moisture viz., rainfall, snowfall, sleet, hail etc. Rainfall occurs in the form of a pattern.

The Water Cycle
The document defines key terms related to the water cycle, including condensation, evaporation, precipitation, snow, rain, hail, surface runoff, transpiration, and accumulation. It explains that condensation is the act of condensing or becoming more compact, while evaporation is matter passing off as vapor. Precipitation, snow, rain, and hail describe various forms of condensed water falling from the atmosphere. Surface runoff and transpiration are parts of the water cycle involving water flow over land and through plants. Accumulation also refers to investing terms.
The Water Cycle- NYY27WS
The document discusses the water cycle and its key components. It describes condensation as water vapor turning into liquid droplets, evaporation as the sun turning liquid water into vapor, and precipitation as water falling from the atmosphere to Earth in forms such as snow, rain, or hail. It also mentions surface runoff, transpiration, and accumulation as other important parts of the water cycle.
The Water Cycle-Jazzmatazz
The document summarizes the water cycle through its main processes. It explains how evaporation turns water into vapor from heated surfaces like oceans. Condensation occurs when vapor cools and condenses into liquid water forming clouds and precipitation falls as rain, snow or hail. Precipitation runs on surfaces as runoff and infiltrates the ground through percolation, accumulating in bodies like oceans and lakes. Plants release water through transpiration, contributing to the atmosphere.

The document describes the water cycle through defining key terms: condensation turns gases into liquids, evaporation turns liquids into gases, precipitation includes rain, snow and hail from clouds, and surface runoff and transpiration move water over land and through plants, with accumulation building storms over seas.
Water Cycle
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. It involves six main processes: evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, surface runoff, and accumulation. Evaporation turns water from oceans, rivers, and lakes into vapor, and transpiration occurs when water evaporates from plants. Condensation occurs when water vapor in the air cools and turns back into a liquid in clouds. Precipitation results when clouds become too heavy and water falls as rain, snow, sleet or hail. Surface runoff transports precipitation from land to streams and rivers. Accumulation occurs when water flows into oceans, lakes, and seas, restarting the cycle.
