No, water can evaporate from various sources, not just the ocean. Evaporation occurs when water changes from a liquid to a gas, and it can happen from rivers, lakes, and even soil.

How are groundwater and runoff different and alike?

Well, groundwater and runoff both land on Earth as precipitation, but groundwater is water that gets trapped underground by seeping through rocks. You capture this water by wells. Runoff is when precipitation flows from (usually) mountains. The water gets into streams, and streams join to form rivers. The rivers would usually lead to the ocean. Most of the runoff gets evaporated when the water reaches the ocean; only a little-bit of the water in rivers and streams flowing down is evaporated then.


Does it rain salt water over the ocean?

No. Only PURE WATER evaporates from the ocean. It evaporates, rises into the atmosphere, and eventually cools down, condenses, and falls as rain. It may have some chemicals other than water in it, but they were picked up from the atmosphere. So, in a nutshell, only water rises from the ocean to make clouds/rain. The salt is left behind.


Does ocean river and lake turn into gas?

Of course it does! But not gas. Water vapor gas. The ocean river water or water lake does not turn into water vapor gas all the way. Think about the water cycle. Only a little water is heated by the sun, evaporated, turns into water vapor and is condensed and falls back as precipitation or water.

Is it true that all runoff from precipitation is quickly evaporated back into the atmosphere?

No, this is only true in arid areas. In most places, runoff finds a river and flows into a lake or ocean. Generally not a lot of it will be evaporated immediately, especially if it's not very warm.
