Question

if globally averaged water vapor increases in the atmosphere, what should we expect of globally averaged precipitation (increase, decrease, or stay the same)? describe your reasoning. (2)

Answer 1

If the average amount of water vapor on a global level increases, then the globally averaged precipitation will increase.

What happens when water vapor increases?

Water vapor refers to the gaseous form of water. It is the substance that forms the cloud we see when they get to the atmosphere and condense due to lower temperatures.

If there is more water vapor on a global level, then this would mean more clouds would condense in the atmosphere and when they can no longer stay there, they will fall as rain in larger quantities. There will therefore be increased global precipitation.
