Leaves reduce water evaporation through thick waxy cuticles on the outer surface that act as a barrier, and by having stomata that can open and close to regulate water loss. Some leaves also have specialized structures such as trichomes or hairs that trap moisture near the leaf surface, reducing evaporation.
