Drainage basin
-
Precipitation- transfer of water from the atmosphere to the ground. In the form of rain,snow, hail, dew
Evaporation- transfer of water from liquid state to a gaseous state. The vast majority occurs from the oceans to the atmosphere
Condensation- transfer of water from a gaseous state to a liquid state, example is a formation of clouds

-
Infiltration-vertical transfer of water from the ground surface into the soil where it may then percolate into underlying rocks

-
Transpiration- is the process where plants absorb water through the roots and then give off water vapor through pores in their leaves
-
Outputs- losses or movement (evaporation, transpiration, runoff into the sea, percolation)
Store- surface, puddles, lakes, river water, plant storage from interception, beneath groundwater is permeable rocks and soil
flows /transfers- overland flow, throughflow, groundwater flow, stemflow, infiltration, percolation.
