The flow chart illustrates the process of water recycle how these water movements change after a
separate phase.
There are 3 phases shown in the whole diagram, beginning with the
evaporation of water, sequencing to the falling of it as rainwater and ending
with the water runoff to the ocean again.
The first phase shows that heat of the sun makes water evaporate and 80% of
total water vapor comes from the ocean. Then, it condenses to form a cloud
in the sky. On the rainy day, clouds become darker and the rain happens
causing precipitation.
After this stage, drops of rainfall become snow or lakes, depending on the
area’s temperature. Otherwise, some of them will go deeply into the ground
via surface runoff called groundwater above the impervious layer. After that,
groundwater filters through the ground to return to the ocean. Lastly, salt
water intrusion is likely to occur before completing a cycle.
