Essay on Precipitation and Its Types | Water Engineering

In this essay we will discuss about the meaning and types of precipitation. Essay on Precipitation: The evaporated water from the surfaces of streams, rivers, sea, ponds, wet surfaces, trees, and plants etc. get collected in the atmosphere and behave like a gas. Under the normal conditions of temperature and pressure, this water vapour obeys the various gas laws (i.e. [...]

Classification of Run-Off Losses | Run-Off Losses | Hydrology | Geology

The run-off losses are broadly classified as follows: 1. Evaporation Losses from Water-Surfaces 2. Percolation Losses.  1. Evaporation Losses from Water-Surfaces: The yield of a lake, imponding reservoir, river or canal will be reduced due to evaporation of water in the atmosphere. The quantity of water evaporated in the atmosphere will directly depend on the atmospheric pressure and site conditions [...]

Hydrologic Cycle of Water (With Diagram) | Hydrology |Geology

In this article we will discuss about the hydrologic cycle of water with the help of a suitable diagram. Hydrology is the science which deals with movement of the water on the ground, under the ground, evaporation from the land and water surfaces, and transpiration from the vegetation. It also deals and includes the way of going back the water [...]
