Why is there more evaporation in a park then there is in a meadow?

Answer 1

The heat from the city (traffic, industries, buildings that absorb heat from the sun) will keep the air warmer in a city than in a meadow. A meadow is out in the open where the air will have a tendency to cool quicker.

Answer 2

The heat from the city (traffic, industries, buildings that absorb heat from the sun) will keep the air warmer in a city than in a meadow. A meadow is out in the open where the air will have a tendency to cool quicker.Some other reasons would be because when pollution from the city builds up over the city, it traps the heat. In a meadow, there would be a lot less pollution. The black tar in pavement attracts and absorbs heat, making the temperature in the city hotter. Another reason that a city would be hotter than a meadow is the tall buildings that also trap heat in the city.

Answer 4

Are u in my science class? I was just doing this exact question! I think it is because cities have a higher temperature so they absorb more water from the soil. The main point is that city parks are sustained, so they are constantly being watered, which means more moisture to be evaporated!

Answer 5

There may be more evaporation in a park compared to a meadow due to factors such as increased surface area of water bodies like ponds or fountains in parks, higher temperatures from paved areas, and possibly more plant transpiration from a greater variety of plant species present in a park. These factors can contribute to higher overall evaporation rates in a park environment.

Answer 6

Why is the wind velocity at ground level differs in the citypark compared to a meadow?

Answer 7

A city park is a patch of green surrounded by sea of asphalt and cement. Air over cement should be dryer and that would draw out moisture from the air over the park.
