The Water Cycle in the Rain Forest
The water cycle in the rainforest is actually very similar to the water cycle everywhere else, except for that when it rains in the tropical rainforest some of the water is intercepted by the flag in the trees at the canopy level. Lets say the cycle starts when it rains, so it rains and some of the water is soaked into the ground and some of it is intercepted by the foliage on the canopy. Then the water that was soaked in to the ground in absorbed by the plants, and the water that was intercepted by the tree foliage is either soaked into the plant or in transpires back into water vapor and condenses into rain the next day.
