fuktscykler

Fuktscykler, also known as water cycles or hydrological cycles, are the continuous processes by which water circulates between the Earth's oceans, atmosphere, and land. This cycle is driven by the sun's energy, which causes water to evaporate from bodies of water, such as oceans and lakes, and transpire from plants. The water vapor rises into the atmosphere, where it condenses to form clouds. As the clouds move and cool, precipitation occurs in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail. This precipitation falls back to the Earth's surface, where it can either run off into bodies of water, infiltrate the ground to become groundwater, or be absorbed by plants through transpiration. The cycle then repeats as the water evaporates again, driven by the sun's energy. The water cycle is essential for maintaining the Earth's climate, supporting ecosystems, and providing freshwater resources for human use. It is influenced by various factors, including temperature, humidity, and wind patterns. The water cycle operates on different scales, from local to global, and is a fundamental process in the Earth's climate system.
