HYDROSPHERE Considered as the water portion of the earth's surface. Part of the geosphere.
HYGROGRAPH An instrument that records the hygrometer's measure of water vapor.
hydrosphere: the part of planet earth that is covered with water and ice.
Indian summer: occurring during mid to late autumn after the first frost, a period of unusually warm weather with clear skies and cool nights.
Hydrosphere The region that includes all the earth's liquid water, frozen water, floating ice, frozen upper layer of soil, and the small amounts of water vapor in the earth's atmosphere.
Hydrosphere- The totality of water encompassing the Earth, comprising all the bodies of water, ice, and water vapor in the atmosphere.
Hygrometer- An instrument used to measure humidity.
Hydrosphere - The water portion of our planet; one of the traditional subdivisions of Earth's physical environment.
Hydrosphere- The Earth's water.
Hygrometer- An instrument that measures the water vapor content of the air.
Ice Crystals- Frozen water vapor suspended in the air.
GEOSPHERE Considered the solid portions of the earth, including the hydrosphere and the lithosphere, as opposed to the atmosphere, which lies above it. At their conjunction is the biosphere.
Climate SystemThe system consisting of the atmosphere (gases), hydrosphere (water), lithosphere (solid rocky part of the Earth), and biosphere (living) that determine the Earth's climate.
geosphere The solid mass (lithosphere) of the Earth as distinct from the atmosphere and hydrosphere or all three of these layers combined.
In the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere of the earth, water is found as a gas, liquid, and solid. Water falls from the clouds as rain, hail, sleet, graupel, snow, etc.
climate"The slowly varying aspects of the atmosphere-hydrosphere-land surface system.
Cryosphere One of the Earth's spheres of irregular form existing in the zone of interaction of the atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere, distinguished by negative or zero temperature and the presence of water in the solid or super-cooled state.
It also includes interactions with the hydrosphere. The term usually refers to the activity of these phenomena over short periods (hours or days), as opposed to the term climate, ...
The system consisting of the atmosphere (gases), hydrosphere (water), lithosphere (solid rocky part of the Earth), and biosphere (living) that determine the EarthŐs climate.

Biogeochemical Cycle: The chemical interactionsand transport within and among the atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere (rocks).
Hydrosphere The water portion of the earth as distinguished from the solid part, called the lithosphere, and from the gaseous outer envelope, called the atmosphere. Hyetal Of or pertaining to rain.
