Rainforests are wet because the air pressure at the equator is low. Air is sucked in from the oceans which contains moisture. Low air pressure also means that air rises upwards. As the strong overhead sun evaporates moisture from the forest, the damp air rises, cools and condenses, producing thunderclouds and rainfall on a daily basis. This process is known as convectional rainfall.
