Earth's water cycle starts when warm, moist ocean air rises, forming clouds that eventually condense into rain.

The rain falls back onto the land, where it eventually drains back into the ocean, starting the cycle again.

When water evaporates, it absorbs solar radiation. When water condenses, it releases all that energy into the atmosphere.

And this transfer of heat helps to moderate conditions on Earth.

Earth's water stores as much as 80% of the sun's heat, helping keep our temperatures steady from the equator to the poles.
