The sun warms the sea, and water rises into the sky as invisible vapour. The vapour cools into clouds, falls as rain, and flows in rivers back to the sea.
In the picture
- The sun: it warms the sea and makes water rise.
- Rising vapour: water in the air goes up into the sky.
- Cloud: cooled vapour gathers into a cloud.
- River: it carries rainwater down to the sea.
Examples
- A puddle dries up after a sunny day.
- Steam from a hot bath fogs up a cold mirror.
Key takeaways
- The sun powers the water cycle.
- Water keeps moving between the sea, sky, land, and rivers.
