Although much less studied than the evaporation of liquids, the sublimation of solid ice has important consequences, as it impacts the climate (since ice reflects the sunlight) as well as the size ...

Evaporation: process of changing from a liquid to a gas or vapor. Condensation: process of changing from a gas or vapor to a liquid. Sublimation: process of changing from a solid to a gas or vapor.

Overall, an average of 39% of annual precipitation was evaporated or sublimated back to the atmosphere. We conclude that the annual distribution of precipitation is an essential control on evaporation ...

Evaporation ... into the atmosphere. 3. Sublimation: Process where ice and snow (a solid) change into water vapor (a gas) without moving through the liquid. 4. Condensation: Process where water ...

These phase changes are condensation and evaporation, freezing and melting, and deposition and sublimation. Water can exist as a liquid, solid and gas as it moves through the water cycle.

The researchers' confinement controlled sublimation technique relies on controlling ... maintaining the rate of silicon evaporation and condensation near its thermal equilibrium. According to De Heer, ...

The richness of the morphological changes is associated with a variable curvature of the SmA–air interface; this variable curvature mediates the local sublimation and condensation rates.
