Book Description:

Just above Earth's lithosphere is its hydrosphere--consisting of all of Earth's surface water, ice, water vapor suspended in the air, and water soaked into the ground. the hydrosphere is the smallest sphere at roughly 20 miles (32 kilometers) thick. Nevertheless, the hydrosphere has a profound impact on the surface of the planet and the processes that go on there, including the ability for our planet to sustain life.
