Generation

The water cycle is the continuous movement of water between Earth's surface and atmosphere through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Water evaporates from oceans, lakes, and land, rises as water vapor, cools and condenses into clouds, then falls back as rain or snow. This precipitation either runs off into bodies of water or infiltrates the ground, eventually evaporating again to repeat the cycle. **Key formula**: The water balance equation is **P = ET + R + ΔS**, where P is precipitation, ET is evapotranspiration, R is runoff, and ΔS is the change in water storage.
