Water Cycle
EVAPORATION is the process by which water is converted from its liquid form to its vapor form and then transferred from land and water masses to the atmosphere.
CONDENSATION is the opposite of evaporation. It takes place when water vapor in the air condenses from a gas, back into a liquid form,
and leaves the atmosphere, returning to the surface of the earth.
PERCIPITATION is when cloud particles become to heavy to remain suspended in the air, they fall to the earth as percipitation. Percipitation occurs in a variety of forms; rain, hail, sleet or snow.
INFILTRATION is the physical process involving the movement of water through the boundary area where the atmosphere interfaces with the soil.

Nice work on these, Saige. Your graphics and text combine show a pretty clear understanding of these concepts.
Keep up the good work, SK.
