The main elements of the water cycle.

The water cycle is the transition of water from a liquid to a gaseous state and, by cooling, back to a liquid one. There is a small water cycle, this is when water from the ocean evaporates, then condensation occurs and it again enters the ocean in the form of precipitation. There is also a large water cycle, this is when water evaporates under the influence of temperature and is transported by wind flows over long distances, where it falls in the form of precipitation, and then, with the help of runoff (rivers, groundwater), returns back to the ocean.
