how can evaporation of surface water in one location can result in groundwater being replenished in a distant location?
goldenfox [79]

The hydrologic cycle describes the continuous movement of water above, on, and below the surface of the Earth. The water on the Earth's surface--surface water--occurs as streams, lakes, and wetlands, as well as bays and oceans. Surface water also includes the solid forms of water-- snow and ice. The water below the surface of the Earth primarily is ground water, but it also includes soil water.


The hydrologic cycle commonly is portrayed by a very simplified diagram that shows only major transfers of water between continents and oceans, as in Figure 1. However, for understanding hydrologic processes and managing water resources, the hydrologic cycle needs to be viewed at a wide range of scales and as having a great deal of variability in time and space. Precipitation, which is the source of virtually all freshwater in the hydrologic cycle, falls nearly everywhere, but its distribution is highly variable. Similarly, evaporation and transpiration return water to the atmosphere nearly everywhere, but evaporation and transpiration rates vary considerably according to climatic conditions. As a result, much of the precipitation never reaches the oceans as surface and subsurface runoff before the water is returned to the atmosphere. The relative magnitudes of the individual components of the hydrologic cycle, such as evapotranspiration, may differ significantly even at small scales, as between an agricultural field and a nearby woodland.

Which task is performed by a geographic information system (GIS)?
sergey [27]

Answer:

(B) Finding zip codes of areas with high population  

Explanation:

A geographic information system (GIS) is designed to display data related to location.  

You can express the location in different ways, such as address or ZIP code, and the system can include data like population density.

The diagram below shows the population density in the zip codes of a given county.

(A) is wrong. The concentration of atmospheric oxygen is about the same everywhere (but the amount of pollution isn't).

(C) is wrong. GIS is not of much use in recognizing the location of an accident, but it could be useful if you plotted the locations of many accidents over a period of time.

(C) is wrong. GIS is not of much use in examining the traffic over a single bridge, but it might be useful for comparing the traffic over many different bridges in an area.

If you have variation, differential reproduction, and heredity, you will have evolution by natural selection as an outcome. It is as simple as that.
