Describe three human activities that can disrupt the water cycle and what effect each one has

1. urbanization - More land erosion and more sediment is washed into streams. This increases the chance of flooding and harms the waterquality of the streams. 

2. deforestation - Forests transport large quantities ofwater into the atmosphere via plant transpiration. This replenishes the clouds and instigates rain that maintains the forests.

3. groundwater mining - This water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into rain and snow, called precipitation. The precipitation falls on the Earth, eventually feeding into streams, lakes, and oceans. Some of the waterseeps into the ground and collects in underground aquifers as groundwater.
