Water Cycle http: //www. osovo. com/diagram/water_cycle. jpg
• The earth has a limited amount of water. That water keeps going around and (well, you get the idea) in what we call the "Water Cycle". This cycle is made up of a few main parts: • Evaporation or (Transpiration) • Condensation • Precipitation • Accumulation or (Collection) • Ground Water • Saturation • Infiltration
Evaporation • Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers, lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam leaves the river, lake or ocean and goes into the air.

Water Vapor (Water Vapor) • Water Vapor is the invisible, gaseous form of water.
Condensation • Water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. This is called condensation. • You can see this at home when you take a shower and the windows and mirrors in the bathroom fog up. You can also do this by breathing on a mirror.
Precipitation • Precipitation occurs when so much water has condensed that the air cannot hold it anymore. The clouds get heavy and water falls back to the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow.
Precipitation http: //www. fondriest. com/fileshare/subpages/science_library/precipitation. jpg
Accumulation • When water falls back to earth as precipitation, it may fall back in the oceans, lakes or rivers or it may end up on land. When it ends up on land, it will either soak into the earth (infiltration) and becomes part of the “ground water” that plants and animals use to drink or it may run over the soil and collect in the oceans, lakes or rivers where the cycle starts all over again.
Watershed/runoff • The land area that supplies water to a river system ( think of “drainage basin”)

Water Table • The top of the saturated zone, or depth to the groundwater in an aquifer

Aquifer • An underground layer of rock or soil that holds water

Groundwater • Water that fills the cracks and pores in underground soil and rock layers
Spring • A place where groundwater bubbles or flows out of cracks in the ground

Recharge • New water that enters an aquifer from the surface
