The states of water—solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (water vapor)—play critical roles in the water cycle. Ice and snow can store water in glaciers and polar regions, affecting runoff and water availability when they melt. Liquid water evaporates into vapor, contributing to cloud formation and precipitation, while vapor can condense back into liquid or freeze into ice, impacting weather patterns. Changes in temperature and climate can alter these states, influencing the overall dynamics of the water cycle.
