What else can I help you with?
What is the vertical movement of water from the ocean to the atmosphere above?
evaporation
How does the amount of water vapor in the air affect evaporation?
The evaporation is less important if the atmosphere is humid.
Water moves from land to the atmosphere through?
The movement of water from the ocean to the atmosphere, to the land, and back to the ocean is called the water cycle. The water cycle consists of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.
What process enables water molecules to move from the ocean to the atmosphere?
Process of evaporation.
Why do evaporation and rain affect surface salinity of ocean water?
Because the process of evaporation leaves behind salt and rain is an result of evaporation
Does the water cycle affect the ocean?
the ocean becomes saltier (evaporation) or less salty (precipitation/runoff)
What process does water enter the atmosphere from the ocean?
Water enters the atmosphere from the ocean through a process called evaporation, where heat energy from the sun causes water molecules at the ocean's surface to turn into water vapor and rise into the atmosphere.
What changes of state occurs when water from the surface of the ocean enters the atmosphere as water vapor?
When water from the surface of the ocean enters the atmosphere as water vapor, it undergoes evaporation - changing from a liquid to a gas. This is a key process in the water cycle where water is transferred between the Earth's surface and the atmosphere.
What is the process that causes the transition from ocean to atmosphere?
The process that causes the transition from ocean to atmosphere is called evaporation. This is when water molecules at the ocean surface gain enough energy to break free from liquid form and enter the atmosphere as water vapor.
What two processes cause an ocean to become a cloud?
The two processes that cause an ocean to become a cloud are evaporation and condensation. Evaporation occurs when water from the ocean's surface is heated by the sun and turns into water vapor. The water vapor then rises into the atmosphere, where it cools and condenses into clouds.
Which Process of water cycle provides most of the water vapor in earths atmosphere?
Evaporation from the ocean
How does the warming of the ocean affect the water cycle?
it increases the evaporation water.
