carbon and water cycles
rainforest intercept 58% of
rainfall
interception storage
where precipitation is intercepted by plants and is temporarly stored
amount of ground water stroage
20%
amount of ice cap and glacier storage 79%
surface storage
the total volume of water stored on the earths surface
e.g lakes rivers streams etc
channel water
water stored in a river or streamed
channel
channel water
water flow through rivers
precipitation equation
= Q+P+(S)=P
runoff + evoporation + change in storage
through fall
water that reaches the ground
either directly or through being
interecpeted by vegetation
thougb flow
water flowing through the ground parallel to the surface
positive water balance
precipitstion exeeds the amount of evapotransportation
condensation
gas to liquid
evaporation
liquid to gas
isolated sytem
not natural i.e created by humans e.g. a lab experiment
dynamic equilibrium
the inputs and outputs are equal
71% of the earth is made up of water
3% available fresh water
cyosphere
the sections of the earrth that are temporarilry frozen e.g
ice caps glaciers
milankovitch cycles
the chanign direction of the earths rotation
interglacial periods
glacial periods
