Explanation: There is a continuous interchange of moisture between earth and atmosphere, constituting the hydrological cycle. The movement of water through the hydrological cycle has a major influence on rainfall distribution and temperature modification. Plants play an important role in hydrological cycle through the process of transpiration. In tropical forests, 75% of the annual precipitation is returned to the atmosphere by the plants. Thus forests play a very important role in maintaining water balance of the soil and atmosphere. Forests play a protective function and conserve soil and water.
