  1. Brain popWhat happens to rainwater after it reaches the Earth’s surface?

  2. Storage

  3. Evaporation and Transpiration(Evapotranspiration)

  4. Runoff

  5. What’s it called when water is absorbed by the ground?

  6. What happens to water after it infiltrates the ground?

  7. Water occupies distinct zones

  8. What do you need for infiltration to occur?

  9. Think about factors that will allow water to INFILTRATE

  10. Factors that Affect Infiltration • Permeable • Unsaturated • Gentle (flat) slope of land • Vegetation • Land Use • Rate of precipitation less than Infiltration

  11. Factors that affect runoff

  12. The ground must be porous and permeable

  13. What happens to water after it infiltrates the ground?

  14. Water occupies distinct zones

  15. Water occupies distinct zones

  17. Where does our drinking water come from

  18. We get our water from water towers.New York City gets their water from upstate reservoirs People Drill wells for drinking waterIs ground water good to drink? YES because it is filtered as it sinks down. Wells are drilled deep enough to reach water this varies throughout.Remember the water table rises and falls.

  19. Wells are drilled deep enough to reach water this varies throughout.Remember the water table rises and falls. What if it runs dry? Dig deeper or use less water.

  20. Streams and Groundwater Ever wonder why many streams, rivers, ponds, and lakes always have water in them even during dry periods? Where is the water coming from?

  21. Because streams get water from the underground when it’s moist.

  22. ? Excess water called?

  23. Surplus: Excess amount of water flow. When?

  24. Little or no water

  25. Deficit: Decrease in water flow. When does this occur?

  26. Discharge: Amount of water in a body of water, rises and falls.

  27. Where does the water go from runoff and small streams?

  28. WATERSHED/ drainage Basin.

  29. If it rains in Utica, into which body of water will the runoff flow into? How about Massena

  30. WATERSHED/ drainage Basin.

  31. Location A is in the zone of ___________? While location B is in the zone of ______? A B

  32. How did the water get from A to B?What characteristics of the soil allowed the water to move down?When is the water able to infiltrate the soil?

  33. The soil must have pores

  34. When is the water able to infiltrate the soil?

  35. The movement of water is controlled by the characteristics of the soil

  36. Porosity
