The Water Cycle!!! Febuary 2012 By Caroline Barbieri
Evaporation • Evaporation is when a puddle shrinks as water evaporates into the air. • Water also evaporates from lakes, oceans, and rivers. • The warmer the air, the faster it evaporates. • When the sun heats up water it evaporates.
Condensation • Condensation is when warm moist air touches a cool window, water vapor starts to condense. • Tiny water droplets form on windows. • Water vapor condenses in high air. • When the water vapor condenses clouds are formed.
Precipitation • Precipitation is when clouds get to heavy and lets out water droplets also know as rain. • Most precipitation falls on oceans. • 1 example is rain fall • 2 example is snow • 3 example is sleet • 4 example is hail
Run-Off • Run-Off is when water goes downhill. • When water reaches the ground, some of it soaks in what doesn’t soak in goes downhill. • Rainfall that does not soak into the soil but the water after goes down hill.
