The sun plays a crucial role in keeping rivers flowing through the process of evaporation and precipitation. Solar energy heats water in rivers and lakes, causing it to evaporate and form clouds. These clouds eventually release moisture in the form of rain or snow, replenishing rivers and maintaining their flow. Additionally, the sun's warmth helps to melt snowpack in the spring, further contributing to river water levels.

What is the orignal source of the energy in wind and flowing water?
The original source of the energy in wind is the sun, which creates temperature differences in the atmosphere leading to air movement. For flowing water, the source of energy is typically the sun as well, which drives the water cycle and creates precipitation that fills rivers and streams.
Does the sun help the musk ox?
yes the sun help the musk ox keep warm in the cold tundra
What does the sun do to help us?
to help people see and keep the earth warm
What are loops of matter flowing from the Sun called?
The streams of charged particles flowing out into Space from the Sun are collectively the Solar Wind.
Why is energy of water flowing in river considered to be an indirect form of solar energy?
The energy of water flowing in a river is considered an indirect form of solar energy because it is ultimately driven by the sun. The sun's energy causes water to evaporate from the Earth's surface, which then condenses and falls as precipitation. This precipitation flows over the land, creating rivers that can be harnessed for hydropower, making the energy ultimately derived from the sun.
What are loops of matter flowing the sun?
Prominence
Moving water in a river is considered a renewable resource because it?
...because the river will keep running as long as the rain keeps falling in the catchment area above it.Climate changes may bring drought to some rivers, meaning there will not be enough water in the river for it to be a renewable resource any more.Because the energy moving the water up to form the rain which becomes the river water comes from the Sun. As long as the Sun heats the Earth, rivers will flow and energy can be taken out of the flowing water (eg to turn a mill wheel).
What source of energy powers wind and flowing water?
The source of energy that powers wind and flowing water is the sun. Solar radiation heats the Earth unevenly, creating temperature differences in the atmosphere that lead to wind movement and evaporation of water, which then falls as precipitation and flows in rivers to generate hydroelectric power.
How you can help a plant?
keep it in the sun and water it a fair amount of water everyday
What is the ultimate source of energy flowing into the ecosystem?
the sun
What kind of rivers were recently discovered on the sun?
There are no rivers on the sun. Any information suggesting otherwise is likely a misunderstanding or misinformation. The sun is a giant ball of gas made mostly of hydrogen and helium, with no solid surface for rivers to form on.
Why was the area along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers so good for growing crops?
because the tigris and euphrates are both near the water and has enough sun and wind to keep it healthy and big!
