Geochemical Cycles Stages

Water cycle: water falling to Earth from clouds

• Transpiration

• Evaporation

• Precipitation

• Infiltration

NGSS.MS-ESS2-4

Water cycle: water that doesn't soak in runs along the surface and collects in bodies of water.

• Infiltration

• Run-off

• Precipitation

• Ground water
