If your not sure what answer should be entered, press the space bar and the next missing letter will be displayed. When you are all done, you should look back over all your answers and review the ones in red. These ones in red are the ones which you needed help on. Question: what percentage of is oceans Answer: oceans take up 97% of water Question: percentage of water Answer: only 1% of water is water Question: the water system Answer: the cycle is a closed system meaning no extra water is added or taken away, however drainage basins are a open system Question: hydrology in areas Answer: rapid runoff in spring, 85% of sunlight is reflected, permafrost is , in summer there's an increased co2 being released, orographic and cyclonic rainfall Question: hydrology in tropical Answer: there's limited infiltration, slow lag time, high , conventical rainfall, deforestation leads to reduced evapotranspiration Question: time Answer: the average amount of time spends in a reservoir Question: ITCZAnswer: intertropical convergence zone- the band of low between the Hadley cell between the northern and southern hemisphere Question: atmospheric circulation Answer: there 3 types of cells Hadley which is nearest to the equator, then the feral cell and finally the cell Question: drainage Answer: the area around a rive which is drained by the and its tributaries Question: watershed Answer: the area a drainage basin Question: explain the cycle Answer: percolation, throughflow, evaporation, transpiration, evaporation
