What else can I help you with?
Can water vapor take up about 4 percent of the air over an ocean?
Over a tropical ocean, yes.
Between which two steps of the water cycle does the ocean fit?
The sun, which drives the water cycle, heats water in the oceans. Some of it evaporates as vapor into the air. Ice and snow can sublimate directly into water vapor. Rising air currents take the vapor up into the atmosphere, along with water from evapotranspiration, which is water transpired from plants and evaporated from the soil. The vapor rises into the air where cooler temperatures cause it to condense into clouds. Evaporation and condensation
What is The release of water vapor into the atmosphere generally happens through a combination of what two processes?
The release of water vapor into the atmosphere generally occurs through evaporation and transpiration. Evaporation is the process by which water from surfaces like oceans, lakes, and rivers transforms into vapor due to heat. Transpiration involves the release of water vapor from plants as they take in water through their roots and release it through small openings in their leaves. Together, these processes contribute to the water cycle and the overall moisture content in the atmosphere.
How long would it take to replace all the water in the oceans with river water?
There is not enough water in all the rivers to replace the water in the oceans.
How long would it take for water to evaporate if the relative humidity was 100 percent?
Water would not evaporate at 100 percent relative humidity because the air already holds the maximum amount of water vapor it can. This means no additional water can evaporate into the air until the humidity decreases.
Where does majority of evaporation take place?
The majority of evaporation takes place in the Earth's oceans due to the vast surface area covered by water. This process is driven by the heat from the sun, which causes water molecules at the surface to gain enough energy to transition into water vapor and enter the atmosphere.
What color is probably on a world map the most?
Blue because the oceans cover seventy percent of the earths surface, and they would take up ;the most space on the map. blue, the water
What step must occur for water vapor to form?
Water must take over
Where in the water cycle does evaporation take place?
Evaporation occurs when water from oceans, lakes, and rivers is heated by the sun and turns into water vapor, rising into the atmosphere. This process is a key part of the water cycle where water is constantly evaporating and condensing to form clouds and precipitation.
What percent of the living animal live in the ocean?
The oceans are estimated to accumulate for 50-80% of all life on earth.
How long does it take for water vapor to evaporate?
This depends on many factors.
Does water take up 75 percent of the earth?
Estimates vary, but somewhere between 70 and 75 percent of the Earth's surface is covered in water. This does not include the polar icecaps. === ===
