- The Sun heats up the surface of the Earth.
- Water from land, seas, lakes and rivers evaporates to form water vapour in the air.
- Water vapour rises, meets the cool air above and condenses.
- Water droplets are formed.
- These water droplets come together to form clouds.
- When more water vapour condenses, the water droplets join to form bigger and heavier clouds.
- These water droplets will fall onto Earth as rain.
- Rain will return to land, rivers, lakes and seas.
- This process repeats and is known as the water cycle.
- The process ensures that the total volume of water on Earth is constant.
