Vattencykeln beskriver förekomsten och rörelsen av vatten inuti, utanpå och utanför jordytan. Jordens vatten rör sig hela tiden, och byter ständigt skepnad, från flytande form till ånga till is och tillbaka igen.

Jy mag dink dat elke druppel reën wat uit die lug val of elke glas water wat jy drink is splinternuut, maar dit was nog altyd hier en is deel van die natuurlike watersiklus.

Mis on veeringe?

Veeringe kirjeldab vee olemasolu ja liikumist Maa peal, sees ja kohal. Maakeral on vesi alati liikvel ning oma olekut muutmas - vedelast auruks ja jääks ning uuesti vedelaks. Veeringe on toiminud miljardeid aastaid ning sellest oleneb kogu elu Maal. Ilma selleta oleks Maa päris surnud paik.
