Water Cycle Components: Zoo 5/20/11

The water cycle consists of many different processes including evaporation and transpiration, condensation, precipitation, and collection. This is a picture of water evaporation; the water is turning into vapor and being released into the atmosphere. Condensation then occurs in the clouds where the water vapor turns back into a liquid. The water in a liquid form then will precipitate and fall back to the ground. Collection is when the water gathers together on the ground in oceans and lakes and can result from runoff.
