When evaporated moisture rises from the Earth's surfaces it mixes with the drier air above and cools. Water or ice droplets suspended in the air mixture create a mist and fog. This shows that evaporation has occurred and is the beginning of cloud formation. Solar radiation throughout the day evaporates and dissipates this fog, causing the water vapor to rise higher through the atmosphere to create clouds.
Salt in the form of sodium chloride is the most common mineral sediment formed as a result of evaporation of seawater. The technical term for such a mineral is evaporite. Other common minerals produced by the evaporation of seawater are calcium carbonate (calcite) and two versions of sodium sulfate: gypsum and anhydrite.
Deserts are sparsely-vegetated arid areas which occupy about one third of the Earth's surface. They are the result of weather systems where evaporation exceeds precipitation as rainfall. Deserts may be hot or cold, but they are always dry. The Atacama Desert in northern Chile is the world's driest hot desert while Antarctica is the world's driest cold desert.
Black holes are regions in space where nothing can escape, not even gravity. British mathematician Stephen Hawking hypothesized that such holes emit radiation and eventually disappear. Astronomers have termed this phenomenon as "Black Hole Evaporation".
