PERCOLATION
Infiltration describes the movement of moisture from the surface into the ground. Percolation is the word used to describe the movement of a fluid through a porous and permeable medium such as soil.
Moisture that falls from the ground is called dew. Dew forms when water vapor in the air condenses on the surface of objects on the ground during the night when temperatures drop.
The ground is wet when there is moisture present on or beneath the surface. This moisture could come from rain, melting snow, groundwater seepage, or irrigation.
The term "earthquake" comes from the word "earth" meaning ground and "quake" meaning to shake or tremble. It was named as such because it describes the natural phenomenon where the ground shakes due to the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface.
Fog is what we call the cloud close to the ground.
surface waves produces the most severe ground movement because its on the surface of the earth
An earthquake is a shaking that occurs in the ground. This results from movement underneath the earth's surface.
The movement of water from vegetation to the ground is called transpiration. This process involves water vapor exiting the plant through tiny pores on the leaves and stems, ultimately returning moisture to the soil.
yes but also coz of surface tension
Ground shrinkage is the reduction in volume or compactness of soil due to factors such as drying out or removal of water. It can lead to settlement of structures built on the affected soil. Ground heave, on the other hand, is the upward movement or swelling of soil caused by the presence of excess moisture or pressure beneath the surface. Heave can also cause damage to buildings and infrastructure.
An earthquake = a shaking or other movement of part of the earth's surface. It is caused by movement deep within the earth. Earthquakes can cause the ground to split.
Earthworms breath by absorbing oxygen through their skin from the moisture in the ground. After heavy rain soaks into the ground it can lose the oxygen in it and the worms can not breath. They come to the surface as not to suffocate. Earthwormsinfo
