Why does evaporation provides more water vapor into the atmosphere than transpiration?

Answer 1

about 71% of the world is covered by ocean, leaving 29% covered by land, which includes lakes, rivers, and other bodies of water. The amount of area covered by plants that transpire water into the atmosphere is a portion of the 29%. So with around 3/4 of the world covered in water, and only part of the rest covered in plants, it's easy to see that evaporation will provide more water vapor then plants.

When the amount of water vapours are compared per unit area in evaporation from free water surface of water bodies with that of due to transpiration, the former is more because it has no limiting factors like opening of stomata and their frequency per unit area etc.

Answer 2

Wind cause more evaporation because if there is a high temperature,more wind will be made and if that will take place wind will mix with the water vapor(evaporated water) it will expand and rise and become saturated as a cloud.

Answer 3

This is simply because so much of the earth's surface (about 70%) is covered by water. However, don't discount the huge importance of transpiration to the water that moves into the atmosphere - plants can move tremendous amounts of water from soil and ground water to the atmosphere, probably at a faster rate than a similarly sized body of water could do (say a pond that is the same size as the canopy of a given oak tree). This is because the plant can move the water from the entire volume that the plant roots encompass, whereas evaporation of water from the pond is only occurring at the surface of the pond.
