  1. Hydrology is the study of the movement, distribution, and quality of water throughout the Earth. The study of the distribution of water is hydrography. The study of the distribution and movement of groundwater is hydrogeology, of glaciers is glaciology, of inland waters is limnology and distribution of oceans is oceanography. Ecological processes with hydrology are in focus of ecohydrology.

    The collective mass of water found on, under, and over the surface of a planet is called hydrosphere. Earth's approximate water volume (the total water supply of the world) is 1 360 000 000 km³ (326 000 000 mi³). Of this volume:

    1 320 000 000 km³ (316 900 000 mi³ or 97.2%) is in the oceans.

    25 000 000 km³ (6 000 000 mi³ or 1.8%) is in glaciers, ice caps and ice sheets.

    13 000 000 km³ (3,000,000 mi³ or 0.9%) is groundwater.

    250 000 km³ (60,000 mi³ or 0.02%) is fresh water in lakes, inland seas, and rivers.

    13 000 km³ (3,100 mi³ or 0.001%) is atmospheric water vapor at any given time.

    Groundwater and fresh water are useful or potentially useful to humans as water resources.

    Liquid water is found in bodies of water, such as an ocean, sea, lake, river, stream, canal, pond, or puddle. The majority of water on Earth is sea water. Water is also present in the atmosphere in solid, liquid, and vapor phases. It also exists as groundwater in aquifers.

    The most important geological processes caused by water are: chemical weathering, water erosion, water sediment transport and sedimentation, mudflows, ice erosion and sedimentation by glacier.


  2. The hydrologic cycle

  3. recycled from sewage.....we call it NEWATER.....juz wundering if any other country does this....use reverse osmosis....

  4. Locations for Sources of water

    1. ocean

    2. sea

    3. lake

    4. river

    5.stream

    6. canal

    7. pond

    8. puddle.

    9. aquifers.

    10. ice caps/ glaciers.

    11. dews.

    12. Fruits/ Vegetables/ Humans/ Animals

    A. Sea water is most abundant.

    B. Water is present as moisture in solid, water in liquid, and water vapor in the sky.

    Process

    1. Chemical weathering.

    2. Water erosion. Glacier Melting.

    3. Chemical Change.

    4. Mudflowing.

    5. Hydrogen + Oxygen Explosion.

    6. Bloodsucking.

    7. Water Extraction from fruits, vegetables.

    8. Dehumidification.

    9. Water Condensation.

    10. Rain Seeding (Using Silver Iodide, AgI).

    11. Typhoon Bombing (Bombing using extreme physics, using extreme low pressure and vapor point plus silver iodide).

  5. Most foods have some amount of water in them. You can easily get about 20% of your daily fluid need from the foods you eat. Fruits tend to have more water and something dry like toast would have much less.

    The other 80% of fluid you need comes from the beverages you drink. Plain water is the best choice. You can drink tap water, bottled water, sparkling water and there are even waters infused with fruit-flavorings. Some brands of flavored water also have sweeteners added, so you need to read the label if you want to avoid the extra calories. Plus they really taste more like soft drinks than water.

    Other choices of beverages can be ranked by their nutritional benefit verses their calorie content and amounts of sugar and fats.

    Herbal teas have virtually no calories unless you add sugar and milk. Some herbal teas like chamomile are often purported to have soothing and healing properties. Other healthy beverages include 100% fruit juices, vegetable juices and low-fat milk. They contain some calories but also offer lots of vitamins and minerals.

    Coffee and black or green tea contain caffeine and many people think that the diuretic effect of caffeine outweighs the amount of water supplied, but recent studies suggest that is not true. Caffeine is a nervous system stimulant and caffeine-sensitive individuals may need to avoid excess consumption of highly caffeinated beverages like coffee, colas and energy drinks. If you need to watch your calories, be careful with the lattes, too, unless you choose non-fat milk.

    Sugar-sweetened soft drinks usually contain no nutritional value, and they may have a lot of calories that can lead to excess weight gain. Artificially sweetened diet soft drinks have no nutritional value, however they also contain no sugar and are commonly used to satisfy the sweet-tooth without adding calories.

    Other beverages that aren't good choices if you need to watch calories include shakes, malts, ice cream sodas and frozen sugary coffee drinks. They all contain lots of calories from sugar and from fat.

  6. faucet! haha
