This document provides an overview of the water cycle through a table of contents that links to sections about evaporation and transpiration, condensation, precipitation, and how they all connect to form the water cycle. It also includes an educational song about the water cycle to help students understand and remember the key concepts.
The water cycle, also known as the hydrological cycle or the hydrologic cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time but the partitioning of the water into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor.
The water cycle involves the exchange of energy, which leads to temperature changes. When water evaporates, it takes up energy from its surroundings and cools the environment. When it condenses, it releases energy and warms the environment. These heat exchanges influence climate.
The evaporative phase of the cycle purifies water which then replenishes the land with freshwater. The flow of liquid water and ice transports minerals across the globe. It is also involved in reshaping the geological features of the Earth, through processes including erosion and sedimentation. The water cycle is also essential for the maintenance of most life and ecosystems on the planet.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

3. Evaporation
Water begins its journey
as a liquid in streams,
rivers, ponds, lakes, and
oceans…even puddles! It
is in a liquid state and sits
on the earth because it is
heavier than air.

4. Evaporation
When the sun heats up the water, the water turns into
vapor (tiny molecules of water) and heads for the sky.
When water evaporates it is lighter than air.

6. Transpiration
Plants absorb water from the soil. Each plant will use the
water that it needs to help it grow. As extra water travels
through the plant and to its leaves, it is pulled out and
evaporated into the air. This process is called transpiration.

Did the water leak through the glass? No! It came from
the air! Water vapor in the air became cooler when it
touched the cold glass, causing it to became liquid again!

9. Condensation
When water vapor goes up into the air, it becomes colder
and gathers with millions of other tiny molecules of water
to create all of the beautiful clouds in our skies!

It is the OPPOSITE of evaporation!

We get precipitation when so much condensed water has become
too heavy for the atmosphere to hold on to.

13. Precipitation
The clouds get so packed with water molecules that they
become heavy and much colder. As the evaporation cools, it
turns back into water and falls down to the ground.
