• Evaporation

• Precipitation

• Transpiration

For the water cycle to work, it needs energy. The energy comes from this source

• Ocean Currents

• The Moon

• The sun

• Vibrations from earth's crust

• Transpiration

• Evaporation

• Precipitation

• Condensation

As ground water warms, it evaporates into the air, as it rises it cools, when it cools it condensates into clouds, then it is released in this form:

• Precipitation

• Evaporations

• Run Off

• Transpiration

Precipitation that does not get absorbed into the ground:

• Ground Water

• Run Off

• Flooding

• Aquifers
