PPT ON WATER CYCLE

1. Hello Everyone , This Is
A PPT On Water Cycle …

2. What Are The Steps Of
Water Cycle :
Step 1 : Evaporation
Step 2 : Condensation
Step 3 : Precipitation
Step 4 : Infiltration
Step 5 : Transpiration
Step 6 : Surface Runoff

3. Step 1 : Evaporation
Evaporation is the process
by which water changes from
a liquid to a gas or
vapour. Evaporation is the
primary pathway that water
moves from the liquid state
back into the water cycle as
atmospheric water vapor.

4. Step 2 : Condensation
Condensation is the process by
which water vapor in the air is
changed into liquid water
. Condensation is crucial to
the water cycle because it is
responsible for the formation of
clouds.

5. Step 3 : Precipitation
Precipitation is water released
from clouds in the form of rain,
freezing rain, sleet, snow, or
hail. It is the primary connection
in the water cycle that provides
for the delivery of
atmospheric water to the Earth.
Most precipitation falls as rain.

6. Step 4 : Infiltration
Infiltration is the movement of water into
the ground from the surface. Percolation
is movement of water past the soil going
deep into the groundwater. Groundwater
is the flow of water under- ground in
aquifers. The water may return to the
surface in springs or eventually seep into
the oceans.

7. Step 5 : Transpiration
The release of water from plant leaves
Plants put down roots into the soil to
draw water and nutrients up into the stems
and leaves. Some of this water is returned
to the air by transpiration.

8. Step 6 : Surface Runoff
Runoff, in hydrology, quantity of water discharged
in surface streams. ... Runoff also
includes groundwater that is discharged into a stream;
streamflow that is composed entirely of groundwater is
termed base flow, or fair-weather runoff, and it occurs
where a stream channel intersects the water table
