•This precipitation sinks into the ground and collects in streams and lakes to return to the oceans. Soon most of it evaporates, and the cycle begins again.
The amount of water that evaporates is approximately the same amount that falls back to the Earth. This amount varies little from year to year and thus the total volume of water in the water cycle is more or less constant

Greenhouse Effect
Hydrologic Cycle
•Because the atmosphere traps some heat and keeps it from escaping back into space too, quickly, Earth’s atmosphere is like glass in a greenhouse. It traps the sun’s energy for growing plants even in cold weather.
•The ______ of Earth’s atmosphere follows some of the same general rules. Normally, the atmosphere provides just the right amount of insulation to promote life on the planet. The 50% of the sun’s radiation that reaches the Earth is converted into infrared radiation, or heat. Clouds and greenhouse gases--- atmospheric components such as water vapor and carbon dioxide (CO2) absorb the heat reflected by the Earth and radiate it back again so that a balance is created.
