#Clouds play a very important role in the Earth's #watercycle. "Heat from the sun causes the molecule to evaporate from the ocean's surface. Once it evaporates, it is transported high in the atmosphere and condenses to form clouds. Clouds can move great distances and eventually the water molecule will fall as rain or snow. Ultimately, the water molecule arrives back where it started...at the ocean." More: https://pmm.nasa.gov/education/videos/tour-water-cycle #WorldWaterWeek #NASAGO #WaterQualit
