Leonardo da vinci did not "discover" the water cycle, as the concept was not fully understood during his time in the 15th and early 16th centuries. However, he made significant observations about the movement of water and its behavior in nature, contributing to the early understanding of hydrology. His sketches and writings included insights into water flow, evaporation, and the relationship between land and water, which hinted at the principles of the water cycle.

Who discovered the water cycle and how did they come to understand its processes?

The water cycle was not discovered by a single person, but rather through the collective observations and studies of many scientists over time. The understanding of the water cycle's processes developed through the work of various researchers, including Leonardo da Vinci, Bernard Palissy, and Pierre Perrault, who observed and documented the movement of water through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Their contributions, along with those of other scientists, helped to establish the modern understanding of the water cycle.
