Evaporation: Liquid water takes in the solar Radiation, and coverts to water vapor.

Transpiration: Water molecules leave plant tissue and enter the atmosphere as a gas: water vapor. 

Sublimation: Water that goes from solid state (such as snow) to water vapor, gas state, without passing through the liquid state, to go into the atmosphere. 

Condensation: Water vapor loses latent heat of vaporization and reverts to a liquid. The droplets form clouds in the sky. 

Precipitation: Moisture is to heavy to stay suspended in the clouds so it falls as rain, snow, sleet, and hail.

Infiltration: water that lands on the ground and seeps into the soil.
