Flying Rivers

Summary Trees and water exist in a symbiotic relationship - take away the trees and you take away the water. Around the world we often take trees for granted and don't even think of their vital role in the hydrologic cycle. Tree roots hold soil in place, preventing erosion and controlling the amount of sediment in nearby rivers. Trees also create rain through a process called transpiration, and the removal of large forests can affect rainfall patterns thousands of kilometers away.
