Energy Flow in Earth’s Natural Systems - Science Illustration #3854976 (License: Personal Use)

At the center is a radiant “Energy” burst, with green arrows linking it to the Sun, a growing plant (photosynthesis), a raincloud (hydrological cycle), a volcano (geothermal energy), and bent trees (wind). Each element demonstrates a distinct pathway through which solar or Earth-based energy manifests in observable natural phenomena. The cyclical layout emphasizes interconnectedness and sustainability in Earth systems.

Used in educational websites, K-12 science curricula, environmental science articles, and climate literacy resources to explain energy transfer in ecosystems and Earth science. Matches user intent for visual learning, classroom instruction, or科普 (science popularization) content.
