The water cycle involves processes such as evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. It describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below Earth's surface.
The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below Earth's surface. It involves several processes, such as evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, driven by solar energy and gravity.
