Water ( Lesson 3-5)- Where is water? How does water move? What's like to be a water molecule?
Reservoir
Man-made bodies of water that resemble lakes and are used to store water ( oceans, lakes, rivers, atmosphere, glaciers, groundwater, soil, living organisms).
Oceans, Groundwater / Glaciers, Soil, Lakes, Atmosphere, Rivers, Plants
OGGSLARP
Evapotranspiration
Plants release water through leaves.
Evapotranspiration
Plants release water through their leaves.
Liquid
Rivers, Rain, Lakes, Creeks, Ocean, Groundwater
Glaciers
Solid ice flow, slower than surface flow, located at the poles or at high elevations, at lower elevations the flowing ice melts due to environmental condititions.
Absolute Humidity
The amount of water vapor in a particular amount of air.
Earth's surface
The boundary between geosphere materials (rocks, sand, sediment, solid rocky layers) and the material above it (air or water)
Gas
Water Vapor
Direction of Water
Water always flows DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!
Groundwater
Water found underground
Flow
Water movement, caused by gravity acting on a fluid that is placed on a nonfluid area.
Animal Uptake
Drinking it
Infiltration
A way that water moves down into the ground, passing between particles of soil, sand, gravel, or rock until it reaches a depth where the ground is saturated with water.
Transpiration
Absorption through roots
Uptake
Animals take in water by drinking it.
How water moves
Flow, Infiltration, Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Absorption through roots, drinking it, , run/off or perspiration, discharge, desublimation, melting, evapotranspiration.
Advancing Glaciers
Glaciers that are growing and moving.
Solid
Ice, Snow, Hail, Sheet
Relative Humidity
Is normally expressed as a percentage; a higher percentage means that the air-water mixture is more humid. At 100% relative humidity, the air is saturated and is at its dew point.
Oceans
LARGEST RESERVOIR, allows water to move around the globe.
Soil
Layer of soil at the surface of the ground which acts at a temporary reservoir for water, which falls through the atmosphere.
Condensation
The process of changing gas to liquid.
Evaporation
The process of turning liquid to gas.
Precipitation
When liquid / solid water falls through the ground. ( rain, snow, sleet, hail)...
