Evapotranspiration is the combined process of evaporation and transpiration. Evaporation occurs when water from soil and surface bodies, like lakes and rivers, turns into vapor due to heat from the sun. Transpiration involves the release of water vapor from plant leaves through small openings called stomata. Together, these processes contribute to the movement of water from the soil and plants into the atmosphere.
When potential evapotranspiration exceeds precipitation, moisture storage is likely to decrease. This is because the demand for water through evaporation and transpiration surpasses the supply from precipitation, leading to a net loss of moisture in the soil and surrounding environment. As a result, soil moisture levels may decline, potentially affecting plant growth and ecosystem health. If this condition persists, it could lead to drought conditions in the affected area.
They can happen at any time
If these parts of the heart were injured or diseased what do you will happen to the organism
No they can't. Tsunamis only happen in the ocean.
tiny earthquakes happen every where under us but we can't feel them
Potential evapotranspiration can change due to factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation. An increase in any of these factors can lead to higher potential evapotranspiration rates, while a decrease in these factors can result in lower potential evapotranspiration. Changes in land use or vegetation cover can also impact potential evapotranspiration levels.

evapotranspiration
This process is called evapotranspiration.
The potential evapotranspiration concept was first introduced in the late 1940s and 50s by Penman and it is defined as " the amount of water transpired in a given time by a short green crop , completely shading the ground , of uniform height and with adequate water status in the soil profile ". Note that in the definition of potential evapotranspiration , the evapotranspiration rate is not related to a specific crop .

evapotranspiration
Evapotranspiration refers to the combined process of water surface evaporation, soil moisture evaporation, and plant transpiration. It is significant during a storm because the stormwater from evapotranspiration is a water budget component for wetlands, wet ponds, and other stormwater treatment practices.
Solar radiation is the primary energy source for evapotranspiration. It drives the process of evaporation of water from surfaces and transpiration of water from plants into the atmosphere.
