Why do water return to the atmosphere?
Heat from the sun evaporates various bodies of water, causing it to go into gas for and float into the atmosphere, where it condenses into clouds from cold temperature, then is reaches the point of normal water, then falls back to Earth the refills the bodies of water and the process restarts.
How can carbon get from the atmosphere to the hydrosphere?
carbon dioxide dissolves in cold ocean surface water. The colder the water, the more CO2 can be dissolved.
What is snow made out of and how?
Snow is made from water evaporated into clouds and then when it falls,if its cold enough it freezes and turns into snow.
Describe how does precipitation occur and what determines the type of precipitation that falls to Earth?
Precipitation occurs due to the immense collection of water vapor in the form of clouds. When the water vapor in these clouds gets too heavy, it falls. If it's cold enough, it falls as snow, or sometimes hail. Usually, however, it falls as rain.
Is hail made of ice crystals?
The air a few miles above the ground is always cold enough for water to freeze. Hail starts off as small pellets of ice called graupel in the cold, upper reaches od a thunderstorm. This graupel is cycled through the storm by powerful air currents. As this happens, the pellets collide with supercooled water droplets, in which water remains liquid below its normal freezing point. These droplets freeze instantly to the surface. Hailstones grow by accumulating layers of ice in the manner. Eventually the hail becomes too heavy to remains suspended in the storm and falls to the ground. The hail is large enough and falls fast enough that it does not have time to melt.
What happens as parts of the convection cycle in earths atmosphere?
Cold, denser air falls

Can you freeze water?
Yes. Very cold outside air or a freezer will do. It becomes ice, the crystalline solid phase of water.
In cold snowy areas water is added to the atmosphere through?
sublimation
Why salt is dissolved faster in hot and cold water?
At high temperature the crystalline structure is affected, it is less stable and the solubility is greater.

Does niagara Fall have crocodiles?
No. Niagara Falls is too cold for crocodiles.
What happens when water vapor hits the cold atmosphere?
Fog.It makes fog.
Why does cold water in a tube sink to the bottom of room temperature water?
Cold water is dense and cold water sinks, just like air, cold air falls and hot air rises.
If clouds become so cold that the water falls as ice this is called?
Frozen water droplets are known as hail.
Why is Niagara falls water so cold?
the water is so cold because its farther away from the equator and it's far north and it is closer to the north pole were its coldest.
