(Note that this term can also refer to artificial lakes created by dams.) Water is found as a liquid on the surface (rivers, lakes, oceans) and beneath the surface (groundwater), as ice (polar ice caps and glaciers), and as water vapor in the atmosphere.

Water is found as a liquid on the surface (rivers, lakes, oceans) and beneath the surface (groundwater), as ice (polar ice caps and glaciers), and as water vapor in the atmosphere. Water reservoirs are the locations where water is stored. The hydrologic cycle describes how water moves around the world between different reservoirs and forms.

NO regulates blood flow, kidney function, and gastrointestinal motility, and has effects on inflammation, endocrine secretion, and nervous system function. It plays a role in fertilization, pathogen elimination, and aging, and is used in medical treatments such as erectile dysfunction.
