The temperature at and near the surface is greater than 0° Celsius (freezing point of pure water), and lower than 100° Celsius (boiling point of pure water). The atmospheric pressure is high enough to maintain the effective boiling point below the maximum surface temperature (about 67° Celsius), up to an altitude of at least 35,000 feet. There is also a volume of water far greater than the water vapor capacity of the atmosphere at average temperatures.

On earth what does water exist as?
Water can exist in three states, liquid, vapor and as a solid. On the earth, it exists in all three states.
What does water exist on earth?
Water can exist in three states, liquid, vapor and as a solid. On the earth, it exists in all three states.
Why does the distance between the earth and sun matter?
Earth is just the right distance from the sun, receiving just enough energy to allow liquid water to exist on the planets surface. If earth were a little further away, then the water would be frozen as ice, while much closer and the water would boil away as water vapour. Liquid water is essential for allowing life to exist.
