The water cycle 

water cycle, cycle that involves the continuous circulation of water in the Earth - atmosphere system. Of the many processes involved in the water cycle, the most important are evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, and runoff.

water cycle processes 

1.Precipitation

Precipitation is a key part of the water cycle, connecting the ocean, land, and atmosphere12345. It includes various forms such as rain, sleet, and snow. Here's how it works:

1. Water evaporates from the surface of the earth.
2. It rises into the atmosphere.
3. It cools and condenses into clouds.
4. Clouds release precipitation back to the surface

2.Run off

• The flow of water across the earth's surface1.
• Precipitation that falls on the land and flows overland into rivers, which then empty into the oceans2.
• Water that replenishes groundwater and surface water as it percolates into an aquifer or moves into a river, stream, or watershed3.

3.Infiltration 

the action of entering or gaining access to an organization or place surreptitiously, especially in order to acquire secret information or cause damage:

4.Evaporation

Evaporation is a process by which an element or compound transitions from its liquid state to its gaseous state below the temperature at which it boils1. It is a form of vaporisation that usually happens on the surface of liquids and involves the transition of the liquid particles into the gaseous phase2. Evaporation mostly occurs from the sea and from vegetation, replenishing the humidity of the air1

5.Transpiration 

Transpiration is the evaporation of water from plants12. Most of the water absorbed by the roots of a plant is not used for growth or metabolism, but is excess water, and it leaves the plant through transpiration1. During the process of transpiration, water molecules in the plant tissues are removed from the aerial parts of the plants2. Transpiration is very important for maintaining moisture conditions in the environment1.
