Condensation, Evaporation, Precipitation and Infiltration

The image on the right represents precipitation. In my opinion it is good because it's simple but clearly shows where precipitation comes from and ends. After its done it shows a little infiltration.

The below diagram shows infiltration. It shows how the water, after precipitation seeps into the soil until it reaches the saturated zone. I think this diagram is providing a little unnecessary info.







The picture below shows condensation. This photo is cut out from a bigger and much more complicated diagram. This photo shows after the sun is done evaporating water it forms clouds. When the cloud has enough water vapor in it, it will precipitate.







The diagram on the right represents evaporation. It shows the sun's rays evaporating the ocean transforming it into clouds. This diagram has just the right amount of info. It is also quite simple.

Nice work on these, Rinzin. I liked the way you were resourceful and actually cut out part of one graphic to fit your needs for a single topic. Creativity is always a plus.
