Researchers have unveiled an “evapolectric” device that pulls energy from the evaporation of water, producing significantly more electrical power than previous moisture-based energy technologies. The ...

Steve Nix is a member of the Society of American Foresters and a former forest resources analyst for the state of Alabama. Water mostly enters a tree through the roots by osmosis and any dissolved ...

Are your eyelids swollen and your eyes dry and itchy? Does it feel like there's something in your eyes? Is it worse in the morning? You might have evaporative dry eye. You get it when tiny glands in ...

Evaporation is an endothermic process undertaken by all liquids. This physical state change occurs when surface molecules gain sufficient kinetic energy to overcome the enthalpy of vaporization. Such ...

In 1974, Stephen Hawking proposed that black holes could evaporate. But do we understand how this might happen? When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s ...

Climate change-induced warming is drying out the American West by not only reducing precipitation, but also by accelerating evaporation — even amid adequate rainfall, a new study has found.

On a hot August day, CU Boulder climatologist Peter Blanken and Ph.D. student Holly Roth cleaned a $50,000 weather station at the edge of Standley Lake to measure a phenomenon even grade schoolers ...

Note: This video is designed to help the teacher better understand the lesson and is NOT intended to be shown to students. It includes observations and conclusions that students are meant to make on ...

A surprising “photomolecular effect” could affect calculations of climate change and may lead to improved desalination and drying processes. In a series of painstakingly precise experiments, a team of ...

Water evaporation is a fundamental process that occurs all around us, from the surfaces of oceans and lakes to the burning off of fog in the morning light from the sun. For centuries, humans have ...
