Marine: The term marine refers to the salty water of the Earth's oceans and seas. It covers more than 70% of the Earth's surface and is home to a wide variety of plants and animals. Freshwater: Freshwater is the term used to refer to water with little to no dissolved salts or minerals. It can be found in rivers, lakes, and underground aquifers. Hydrologic Cycle: The hydrologic cycle is the continuous movement of water from the Earth's surface to the atmosphere and back again. It involves the processes of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.
