    All of the waters on Earth are found in the hydrosphere. It can be in a form of ocean, river, streams, water vapor, etc. Their movement transfers water and heat throughout the atmosphere, either in a form of vapor or precipitation. Any change in precipitation patterns for example, causes drought or floods in varying areas. On the other hand, ocean absorbs huge amount of solar energy wherein heat is transferred from equator to poles. When these happens, global temperature changes. Today, it is thought that the ozone layer in the atmospheres is becoming thin, allowing more solar energy to be absorbed in the oceans - creating a not so comfortable temperature for humans i. e. "climate change".
