Sentences with phrase «average evaporation rate»

Not exact matches

Simultaneously, as the average liquid droplet becomes smaller through evaporation, the vapor's density increases, so more vapor molecules merge at a faster rate to become microscopic liquid droplets, and more water molecules are ionized.

Average annual rainfall is measured at 3,560 mm with an evaporation rate of 1,708 mm per year.

The rate of evaporation at 21 C is about 88 Joules per sec which if that was averaged over a large enough area would be about 88 Wm - 2 per sec.

Rates of water loss, due in part to evaporation, were double the long - term average.

The steady increase in global temperatures, including average temperatures in Australia, means that even when rainfall is at or near the historical average, conditions are drier than before because evaporation rates are higher.

The TEMPERATURE of the water (its average kinetic energy) determines the rate of both evaporation and radiation.

Instead it is a composite of the rates of evaporation and condensation, melting and freezing and thus the average time that a water molecule remains in the air in vapour form, or in the ocean as a liquid or in ice and snow as a solid.
