It evaporates from the ocean to the atmosphere, changes into a cloud(yes like the ones you see in the sky), then it becomes to heavy and starts falling down as rain until it lands on the ocean or ground.

Because the deeper you go the more water you have on top of you, every 10 meters you go under water, you have another atmosphere on top of you, the wieg that is pressed to you is what causes the pressure

Why do water return to the atmosphere?

Heat from the sun evaporates various bodies of water, causing it to go into gas for and float into the atmosphere, where it condenses into clouds from cold temperature, then is reaches the point of normal water, then falls back to Earth the refills the bodies of water and the process restarts.


How and why do temperature and pressure vary with ocean depth?

At sea level,the pressure of the atmosphere pushing down on the ocean surface is reffered to as 1 atmosphere of pressure.An atmosphere is the pressure exerted on a surface at sea level by the column of air above it.As you go below the oceans surface ,the pressure increases because of the force of the water molecules pushing down.


What is the process called when water leaves ponds into the atmosphere and back to the ponds?

Vaporization (aka. evaporation) is the process in which the molecules in liquid water break their intermolecular forces of attraction and become gas molecules. These H2O gas molecules have no where to go, except into the atmosphere. So the process for when these gas molecules change back into liquid molecules and leave the atmosphere, (or when it rains) is called condensation. This water of course goes back into different water sources such as ponds, lakes, and oceans.

Where does excess water go?

the excess water from the ocean when the tides go in and out when the tide comes in the water is pushed from the ocean and is brought to land but when the tide goes out the water is pushed to the middle of the ocean and is sent to other places
