What is meant by a store and a flow? - A store is where water is held for varying amounts of 'residence' time. A flow is the movement of water between stores Identify the three largest stores in size order - 1. The oceans 2. Icecaps and glaciers 3. Groundwater Which two water stores are non-renewable, and why? - 1. Fossil water: old, deep groundwater from former wetter periods 2. Losses from the cryosphere: melting of ice as a result of global warming Distinguish between blue and green...

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 co...

Explain why water budgets vary between different Drainage basins (6) - Answer--water budgets describe the amount of water within a drainage basin when taking into account that added by precipitation and that lost through evapotranspiration, as well as of run off and changes in storage. One of the reasons this can vary between drainage basins is the physical factors that may effect the basin. For example areas that have high levels of vegetation cover will have high levels of interception and eva...
