ESS2.C: The Roles of Water in Earth's Surface Processes

  • Water continually cycles among land, ocean, and atmosphere via transpiration, evaporation, condensation and crystallization, and precipitation, as well as downhill flows on land. (MS-ESS2-4)

    • Develop a model to describe the cycling of water through Earth’s systems driven by energy from the sun and the force of gravity.
