Appears in 18 processs and 32 steps. Everything below is linked: open a process to see it in context.
Top processes
- Stage 1: a wet surface evaporates at the atmospheric demand rate, typically 3-8 mm per day in sunny weather
- A cooler surface has lower saturation vapour pressure, about 6-7% lower per degree Celsius, which slows evaporation
- Stage 3: the drying front retreats below the surface and vapour diffusion through the dry layer limits loss, often below about 0.5 mm per day
