As water cycles through an ecosystem which process returns it to the atmosphere?
The process that returns water to the atmosphere in an ecosystem is evaporation. Water from sources such as lakes, rivers, and oceans is heated by the sun, turning it into water vapor that rises into the atmosphere.
What are the probable sources of salt in the atmosphere?
the ocean. water from the ocean evaporates into the air, ocean water has salt in it.
What are some sources of water vapor?
Water vapor can come from any body of water. A glass of water will evaporate and cause water vapor. It is the gaseous phase of water that can be produced from boiling liquid water, evaporation, or the sublimation of ice. Planetary mass objects have ejected water vapor into the atmosphere.
Natural sources of water particles in the atmosphere?
Evaporation. Sunlight hitting any liquid water will cause the water to evaporate into its gaseous state.
What sources of water are fresh?
some sources of fresh water are, lakes, rivers, streams, canals, some glaciers, springs, ponds, and maybe some other sources that i am not remembering.
Why should carbon stay the same in the atmosphere?
Carbon in the atmosphere is added by processes like combustion, decomposition and losses from methane sources. It is removed by photosynthesis and, chemical reaction and dissolving in ocean water. As long as the sources exceed the sinks the carbon will stay (and increase) in the atmosphere. Human activities increase the sources and decrease the sinks.
What processes return water vapor to the atmosphere?
The main processes that return water vapor to the atmosphere are evaporation and transpiration. Evaporation occurs when liquid water changes into water vapor from sources such as oceans, lakes, and rivers. Transpiration is the process through which plants release water vapor from their leaves into the atmosphere. Both of these processes contribute to the water cycle by replenishing the atmosphere with water vapor.
What are four sources of water vapor?
The four main sources of water vapor are oceans, lakes, rivers, and the ground surface (via evaporation). Other sources include plants transpiring water vapor into the atmosphere and human activities like industrial processes and combustion contributing to atmospheric water vapor.
What is the source of carbon dioxide for water plants?
Carbon dioxide in the oceans primarily comes from the atmosphere. Some of the carbon dioxide from the air dissolves into the ocean water. However, smaller amounts can come from respiration of sea animals and other miscellaneous sources. The atmosphere is by far the largest source of carbon dioxide in ocean water, though.
Where do we find water?
Water is found in various natural sources such as rivers, lakes, oceans, and underground aquifers. It is also present in the atmosphere as clouds and in the form of precipitation like rain and snow. Additionally, some water is stored in glaciers and ice caps.
Does water naturally contain carbon dioxide?
Yes, water can naturally contain carbon dioxide, which can dissolve in water from the atmosphere or from natural sources like soil and rocks.
Where on the water on Neptune?
There is some water ice suspended in Neptune's atmosphere.
