Only a small part of oceans volume is evaporated.


What process cause water to leave the ocean?

Water leaves the ocean through evaporation, where water molecules gain enough energy to escape into the atmosphere in the form of water vapor. This water vapor can then condense and form clouds, eventually leading to precipitation in the form of rain or snow.


Do plants loose water?

What process cools the ocean?

The primary process that cools the ocean is evaporation, where water at the ocean's surface turns into water vapor, taking heat energy with it. Additionally, mixing of colder deep water with warmer surface water through ocean currents can also contribute to cooling the ocean.


Is The Great Salt Lake salty because it is so close to the ocean?

No.The reason it is so salty is because it only leaves the lake through evaporation and the water leaves the salt behind.

What happens to the salt in the ocean when water evaporates?

When water evaporates from the ocean, the salt remains behind. This process leaves the salt concentration in the ocean water higher than before evaporation.


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.


Where does water vapor come from?

How does transpiration contribute to the evaporation of water vapor from plant leaves?

Transpiration is the process by which plants release water vapor through tiny pores in their leaves called stomata. This water vapor evaporates into the air, contributing to the overall evaporation of water from the plant leaves.
