Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 60, No. 2, Pages 38 and 39:
A model shows how warming areas of the ocean (left in orange) increase the rate at which water evaporates from the sea surface into the atmosphere. As the atmosphere continues to warm, it can store more of this water in the form of clouds, which can circulate the globe and unleash dangerous
volumes of rain over communities.
