The higher the temperature the more water vapor the air can hold. Process by which water vapor turns back to liquid water.
Condensation occurs when the air is super-saturated with water vapor.
Warm air masses rise and expand. The process of expansion results in the temperature decreasing. The rate at which the temperature decreases with increasing elevation is called the lapse rate . Process by which water is sucked out of the ground by the roots of plants and converted to water vapor which enters the air through the leaves. The combination of evaporation and transpiration which acts on a surface area of land.
