A
hydrologic cycle describes how water travels from its source (the ocean) to
anywhere on the earth. The journey ends with the water flowing back to the
ocean.
In the hydrologic cycle, there are two components, namely transportation and storage. Precipitation, evaporation, transpiration, infiltration and runoff are the transportation components. On the other hand, land surface features such as lake and reservoir, soil and groundwater body are the examples of storage component.
The following shows the simplified hydrologic cycle. Watch the video above for full details.
