The Environment of the Week
3/9/98

Oceans contain almost 97% of the water on Earth. They are the driving for of the water cycle on the planet. Water evaporates (as seen in the picture) and provides for clouds and rain that supply the land with the moisture necessary for life to exist. With water, the planet would be desolate much like the surface of Mars. If you would like to know more about water or the water cycle, check out our Water Module and Water Cycle sites.

For more information and a listing of past weeks, check out our Environment Archive.
