  2. Ocean water current- The ocean water carries the warm water from the equator to the poles and he cold water from the poles back to the equator, thereby maintaining the earth's climate.
  3. Topography- Due to the presence of hills, valleys and other landforms, the hot air when rises up to the atmosphere moves in the direction of wind and when strikes a mountain, it precipitates.
  4. Vegetation- Plants and trees during photosynthesis process releases water vapor that are added to the atmosphere, which subsequently condenses and rainfall occurs.
