Meet Rutabaga Raindrop
Hello my name is
Rutabaga Raindrop! I
will take you on a tour
of the water cycle
Evaporation
In Evaporation, the Sun
heats up the water and
the water turns into
vapor. Then the vapor
rises up into the air.
That is evaporation.
Transpiration
Transpiration is the
process when plants
give water through their
leaves. This gives
evaporation help
getting vapor up into
the air!
Condensation
Condensation happens
when the vapor gets
cold and changes back
to liquid. Then the
water turns into clouds.
Precipitation
Precipitation happens
when a lot of water has
condensed and the
clouds can not hold it
anymore. Then the
water falls back to earth
as rain, hail, sleet, or
snow.
Collection/Accumulation
The water falls back to
Earth as precipitation.
This precipitation could
fall ANYWHERE!
Runoff
Runoff is the movement
of land water traveling
to the oceans. This
water can come from
rivers, lakes or streams.
This land water travels
over the ground. It
could travel over
mountains!
Sublimation
Sublimation is the switch
from ice to gas without
a liquid stage in
between.
