water is evaporated from the sea , when moist air rises the temperatures drop causing condensation to form clouds
2. advection moves clouds inland and precipitation occurs such as rain or snow , amount and duration effect level of water in the system
3. water is then stored in lakes or as glaciers on the surface or transported back to the sea by overland flow
4. water that has fallen on vegetation can move back into the atmosphere by evapotranspiration
5. water thats fallen on earths surface either moves underground through infiltration and flow back to oceans as through flow or moves further underground by percolation
6. here water is stored as ground water or moves back to the oceans as groundwater flow
