Three phases of water correct answers solid (ice)
liquid (water)
gas (water vapor)
phase changes of water correct answers Water can change its phase through the absorption or
release of heat energy
For example, when air cools, water vapor in the air condenses to a liquid and heat is released as
the latent heat of condensation. The release of heat during condensation is significant and drives
some important atmospheric processes.
solid to liquid
liquid to gas
sublimation correct answers A change directly from the solid to the gaseous state without
becoming liquid
Hydroloic cycle correct answers a model of the pathways for water movement in the
environment.
evaporation (and transpiration),
condensation,
precipitation,
infiltration (groundwater movement), and
runoff.
Evaporation correct answers the movement of water away from any surface into the atmosphere.
liquid to gas
Transpiration correct answers movement of water away from plants into the atmosphere
evapotranspiration correct answers The combined amount of evaporation and transpiration
Condensation correct answers the intermediate step between evapotranspiration and
precipitation. Evaporated water from the surface, vegetation, oceans, rivers, and so on, condenses
(changes state from a gas to a liquid) in the atmosphere to form clouds and, eventually, under the
right conditions, precipitation.
, gas to liquid
Precipitation correct answers the water supplied to the earth's surface as rain, snow, sleet, et
cetera
infiltration/run off correct answers When precipitation reaches the surface, the water can either
enter the soil by these
Where is Earth's water? correct answers Fresh water: 2.5%
oceans: 96.5%
0.9% Saline
river systems: 0.006% fresh water
8 * this amount is in ground soil and 40 * this much is found in lakes.
2/3 of earths freshwater is stored in glaciers and ice sheets
1/3 is deep in the earths crust as ground water
Groundwater and glaciers are critical sources of water for people around the world, and rivers
and lakes found at the surface, while comprising a smaller proportion of the earth's total
freshwater, are quite important as well.
surface water is locked up in ice (ground ice and permafrost
humidity correct answers water vapor content of the air
Warm air can hold more water vapor than cold air
relative humidity correct answers ratio of the amount of water vapor that is actually in the air
relative to the amount of water vapor that a parcel of air at a given temperature can potentially
hold is expressed as
When the relative humidity is low, air feels dry. When the relative humidity is high, air feels
moist.
amount of water vapor in the air decreases with correct answers latitude (as temp decreases)
relative humidity increases with correct answers latitude (as temp increases) even though there is
less overall vapor in the air.
water vapor is the most abundant correct answers green house gas in the atmosphere
