The Hydrologic Cycle

is the
Water Cycle

Science Journal Entry #1

1. What are the three different states of water?
(Be sure to draw an example for each state.)
2. What do you already know about the
hydrologic cycle? What is it?
3.Does the earth recycle water or is water newly
made?
4. Can the flow of water be interrupted? Yes or
No? Be sure to give examples as to why?
5. Do you know the definition of thermal
energy?

What is it?
The Water Cycle is the movement of water
around the earth, from the oceans to the
atmosphere to land and then its return to the
atmosphere.

Evaporatio
n
The process where a
liquid becomes a gas
because of turning into
vapor with help from
the sun

Transpiration

When water is released

from a plant through
the stomata

Condensation
Vapor becomes cold which causes it to
become a liquid and form clouds

Precipitation
Clouds get heavy and the water is released as
rain, snow, sleet or hail.

Rain

Snow
Hail

Sleet

Collection
When the earth stores
water in lakes, streams
or aquifers.

Infiltration
Happens when water
soaks into the soil under
the ground level

Sometimes if the soil or

rock is not porous the
flow of water will be
interrupted.

Run-off
Rain water that flows over mountains and hills
and takes rocks and soil towards the river

Based on everything we have learned, why do you

think the cloud forms in the bottle?
