O ciclo da água, também comumente conhecido como ciclo hidrológico, descreve a existência e o movimento contínuo da água sobre, dentro e acima da Terra. A água da Terra está sempre em movimento e sempre mudando de estado, de liquido para vapor, depois para gelo e novamente de volta para seu estado inicial.
