New Water Cycle Diagram REVEALED
After over 2 decades, the USGS Water Resources Mission Area revealed a new Water Cycle Diagram during a virtual release party, Stories of the Water Cycle, held on Thursday, October 13th at 6:30 pm ET. The updated, comprehensive diagram depicts how Earth’s water is stored and moves, both naturally and because of human action.
