What This Template Offers

A ready-to-use, easy-to-edit water circular flow diagram that turns complex hydrology into a clear story.

Use cases

Perfect Use Cases

Classroom lessons and lecture slides

Give students a crisp water circular flow diagram they can grasp in seconds. Use labeled arrows and values to reinforce key concepts.

Environmental impact reports

Show the hydrologic budget at a glance. Quantify pathways (e.g., mm/year) to support findings and recommendations.

City stormwater and watershed planning

Compare runoff vs. infiltration scenarios to guide infrastructure decisions and resilience planning.

Public outreach and science communication

Turn complex processes into a clear visual for blogs, social posts, or community briefings.

Customize

How to Customize

Add or rename stages

Include nodes like Evaporation, Condensation, and Runoff—rename or add new ones to match your process.

Define flows with values

Enter directional links (From → To) with magnitudes and units to make comparisons meaningful.

Style and layout in seconds

Adjust colors, labels, radius, and arrow size. Preview instantly, then download or embed.

Key Benefits

  • Clarity fast—turn raw data into an intuitive flow map
  • Professional polish without design skills
  • Flexible for education, research, and policy briefs
  • Backed by MakeCharts for easy sharing and embedding

Pro Tips

  • Keep units consistent across flows (%, mm/year, or volume)
