Hydrological cycle is the cyclic movement of water containing basic continuous processes like evaporation, precipitation and runoff. Cycle begins with Runoff then evaporation will start, then after Precipitation occurs then again Runoff. This is a continuous cycle which starts with evaporation from the water bodies such as  oceans.

Process of hydrological cycle starts with oceans. Water in oceans, gets evaporated due to heat energy provided by solar radiation and forms water vapour. This water vapour moves upwards to higher altitudes forming clouds. Most of the clouds condense and precipitate in any form like rain, hail, snow, sleet. And a part of clouds is driven to land by winds. Precipitation, while falling to the ground, some part of it evaporates back to atmosphere.
