The water on Earth's surface is heated up, and the particles start moving fast enough to push each other away. This causes the water to become a gas, which rises. This process is called evaporation.
When air high above the earth surface is cooled below the dew point its is likely to form?
Clouds.
How clouds reflect heat to the Earth?
For a quick answer, here ya go: Heat radiating from the sun causes the water in the oceans to evaporate. This water vapor accumulates in the atmosphere creating more clouds. The clouds form sort of a blanket that reflects heat away from the earth's surface.
What do clouds provide the earth with?
weather satellites
