Water System
Across
- 4. Surface's like (oceans, rivers, lakes, streams, and ponds)
- 11. During the day, water absorbs heat from sun, and at night,it releases the heat slowly
- 13. The sun provides the energy required to run the whole process
- 15. A Water vapour (evaportion)
- 17. Ice sheets like polar and icecaps
- 18. water has a higher heat capacity than air or land
- 19. Solar energy passes through the atmosphere and reaches the earth's characteristic
- 20. Earth is surrounded by an atmosphere
Down
- 1. Flooding and increased erosion
- 2. When unusual weather lasts over several months or years in high mountain areas, it will affect the size of the glaciers there
- 3. When water evaporates, it takes heat energy from the surrounding environment
- 5. Water has a high specific heat capacity, which absorbs a lot of heat without a significant increase in temperature
- 6. there is no beginning or ending to the water cycle
- 7. Natural periods of cooling and warming
- 8. Threats to the don river watershed
- 9. A general trend in climate will impact the size of glaciers and ice sheets
- 10. the depth differs from region to region
- 12. If the temperature stays cold, more snow falls, and the glaciers grow
- 14. An area of land in which all water presents lakes, rivers, wetlands, and underground sources
- 16. A mass of ice and overlying snow that moves slowly down a mountain slope under the influence of gravity
