The illustration compares the similarities and differences in the water cycles of developed and undeveloped areas. In general, erosion of soil is higher in urban places compared to areas with trees. In areas with forests, starting with precipation, infiltration of water occurs through the trees, then through the permeable topsoil and less permeable subsoil on […]
The figure illustrates the water cycle in two different areas: frosted and urban. Rainwater will encounter different steps when precipitated on soil. First, part of this water will be permeable on the topsoil and the other one is less permeable in the subsoil. In the subsoil, the water infiltrate downward. This infiltration is less in […]
The diagram illustrates how different is the water cycle in forests and urban areas. The cycle involves multiple stages. Overall, the process starts with precipitation in both areas and ends evaporation and transpiration of water in the forests than in the urban areas. More evaporation and transpiration can be seen in the forests than the […]
Two flow charts show water falling, flowing and flying back into the sky on a forest area on the left and a city area on the right. The difference between the two areas is shown in the details. There is more evaporation in the forest and more transpiration. The rainfall is the same in the […]
The diagram in question provides interesting insights into the water cycle in two different areas, the forested area on the right, and the urban area on the left. As the graph shows, the water cycle has the same path in both areas, and it commences from the precipitation. The water falls over the permeable topsoil, […]
