PPT-Groundwater The Unseen Part of the Water Cycle

Salt Groundwater Ground Water Reservoir The presentday surface hydrologic cycle The numbers in parentheses refer to volumes of water in millions of cubic kilometres and the fluxes adjacent to the arrows are in millions of cubic kilometres of water per year. And Moses lifted up his hand,. And with his rod he smote the rock twice: . And the water came out abundantly:. And the congregation drank and their beasts also.. - Deuteronomy 6:11. Much of the global H. 2. O, resides below the surface of the Earth in what geologists refer to as . groundwater. . .
