The sun is a source of energy. The energy is absorbed by the earth on dry land or water in a river or ocean in the form of heat. The temperature rises when the sun shines, whether it shines on water or land. On land, the temperature rise causes the surrounding to heat up. The air above the hot land rises and form a low pressure. At sea, the temperature rise causes water to evaporate to increase the air humidity above the sea and form clouds in the sky.
