as earth spins wind in both hemispheres curves.

movement of mater due to different densities.

the process of a substance transitioning directly from a solid to a gas without passing through a liquid state.

the process by which a liquid transitions into a gas or vapor.

the phase change where water vapor (gas) turns directly into ice (solid) without becoming liquid

the process where plants release water vapor into the atmosphere through tiny pores (stomata) in their leaves, acting essentially as "plant sweat"

water vapor rises into the atmosphere, cools, and turns back into liquid water, forming clouds

the portion of precipitation, snowmelt, or irrigation water that does not soak into the soil but instead flows over the land surface, driven by gravity, into streams, rivers, lakes, and eventually the ocean

surface currents vs. deep curents

Surface currents are shallow, wind-driven horizontal flows in the upper 400–1000m of the ocean that redistribute heat. Deep currents (thermohaline circulation) are density-driven, vertical and horizontal movements along the seafloor caused by cold, salty

the process in the water cycle where water falls from clouds to Earth's surface as liquid or solid

the process where water gathers in large bodies, such as oceans, rivers, lakes, and glaciers, after precipitation.

Question	Answer
Coriolis effect	as earth spins wind in both hemispheres curves.
convection	movement of mater due to different densities.
sublimation	the process of a substance transitioning directly from a solid to a gas without passing through a liquid state.
evaporation	the process by which a liquid transitions into a gas or vapor.
Deposition	the phase change where water vapor (gas) turns directly into ice (solid) without becoming liquid
traspirtaion	the process where plants release water vapor into the atmosphere through tiny pores (stomata) in their leaves, acting essentially as "plant sweat"
condensestion	water vapor rises into the atmosphere, cools, and turns back into liquid water, forming clouds
runoff	the portion of precipitation, snowmelt, or irrigation water that does not soak into the soil but instead flows over the land surface, driven by gravity, into streams, rivers, lakes, and eventually the ocean
surface currents vs. deep curents	Surface currents are shallow, wind-driven horizontal flows in the upper 400–1000m of the ocean that redistribute heat. Deep currents (thermohaline circulation) are density-driven, vertical and horizontal movements along the seafloor caused by cold, salty
percipition	the process in the water cycle where water falls from clouds to Earth's surface as liquid or solid
accumilation	the process where water gathers in large bodies, such as oceans, rivers, lakes, and glaciers, after precipitation.
