It cleans and distributes the water to some degree
In order to maintainEarth'swater balance, evaporation exceeds precipitation over oceans.
if evaporation is considered part of precipitation it odes because precipitation causes evaporation
Evaporation and condensation
Hydrology
No, an equilibrium exist.
There are three stages in water cycle.These are evaporation, condensation and precipitation.
No water is lost or gained because the water from precipitation comes from the water that has been evaporated.
On long term an equilibrium exist.
The difference between evaporation and precipitation is that evaporation occurs at the top while precipitation happens at the bottom of the surface.They are related since they all deal with heating liquids into vapour and released into the atmosphere.
the earth is spinning and also the wind ----- The weather cycles. The whole thing is about precipitation, evaporation, and condensation.
An equilibrium exist on long term.
Earths oceans gain water considering evaporation and precipitation together since when vapour is released to the atmosphere it condenses and later falls back as rainfall by about (1-5)%
