However, as observational techniques that used to be restricted to research applications are entering operational mode, it is becoming possible to routinely measure evaporation and soil moisture ...

It took a while for scientists to gain access to the samples that NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission took from the asteroid Bennu, but ...

Evaporation close evaporationThe process in which a liquid changes state and turns into a gas. is used to separate a soluble solid from a liquid. For example, copper sulfate is soluble in water ...

And this process is called evaporation. When a gas cools down, it can change state back into a liquid. So when the warm steam hits the surface of, say, a cold mirror it turns back into water again.

While the decline has been widely attributed to low stream flows into the lake, the real story is more nuanced, a study ...

The Great Salt Lake hit record-low levels in 2022 due to reduced streamflows and increased evaporation driven by climate ...
