Water cycle words: Definition

1. Precipitation :When clouds get heavy the water falls as rain, sleet, hail, or snow.
2. Hurricanes : a storm with a violent wind, in particular a tropical cyclone in the Caribbean.
3. Storms : a violent disturbance of the atmosphere with strong winds and usually rain, thunder, lightning, or snow.
4. Evaporation : the process of turning from liquid into vapour.
5. Carbon Dioxide : a colourless, odourless gas produced by burning carbon and organic compounds and by respiration. It is naturally present in air (about 0.03 per cent) and is absorbed by plants in photosynthesis.
6. Water : a colourless, transparent, odourless liquid that forms the seas, lakes, rivers, and rain and is the basis of the fluids of living organisms.
7. Oceans : a very large expanse of sea, in particular each of the main areas into which the sea is divided geographically.
8. Water vapour : Water vapor is water in its gaseous state-instead of liquid or solid (ice). Water vapor is totally invisible.
9. Freshwater :of or found in freshwater; not of the sea.
10. Flooding : the covering or submerging of normally dry land with a large amount of water.
