As the logic — and science — goes, a cooler, geoengineered planet means less evaporation, and thus less rainfall.

Not exact matches

The weaker temperature gradient would have meant less rainfall and more evaporation in the midlatitude North Pacific.

Evaporation from the soil means that plants will have less water.

I don't think he's just talking about less evaporation meaning less ocean heat loss.

Part way there, but no quantitation yet: of the 3.77 W / m ^ 2 radiated back dowwnard, most goes to increased rate of evaporation of the water at the surface, and much less goes to increased mean temp increase at the surface; hence increased rate of non-radiative transfer of heat from surface to upper atmosphere, slight increase in rainfall as hydrological cycle is faster, and slight increase in cloud cover.

which in turn means more evaporation, which in turn creates more clouds trapping the heat allowing less heat to be radiated off into space

The tired old alarmist argument goes something like this: CO2 levels increase, which in turn increases temperature, which in turn means more evaporation, which in turn creates more clouds trapping the heat allowing less heat to be radiated off into space.

Those effects include more rainfall that occurs in heavy downpours, meaning less is absorbed into the earth and more becomes runoff; more rain and less snowfall in the mountains, which means less melting snow to feed rivers in the spring and summer; and higher temperatures causing more evaporation.

Global warming means hotter temperatures, which lead to less snow and more evaporation.
