Posting on a phone. And you obviously do not know what precipitation actually is. It represents heat energy leaving the oceans and eventually entering space. Heat energy is required to turn liquid water into a gas and then once again it takes heat energy to convert the water vapor back to liquid to develop rain. H2O is just the medium for the heat transfer. Your other stuff is pointless.

Pointless? Then sir, with all due respect, I must point out the obvious flaws in your statement! Precipitation of course, is required for the consistant influx of rain that many have observed and pointedly exclaimed as the reason for global warming. But this same energy that supposedly turns heat into water is a scientific anomaly that has yet to be explained. H2O is far more volital than modern science will admit.

In fact, H20 has an equal reaction to both heat and cold, it causes volcanic eruption when warmed and is a precursor to earthquake when cooled.. Both are equally devastating.

Basic science proves that heat energy is used to convert the water vapor to liquid. But the science is not clear that this has anything to do with rain. In fact, water, though a great channel for electric impulse has no direct relation to heat transfer of any kind without the conductor being explicitly related to heat transfer without the input of the original H2O molecules.

Getting the water vapor gas to condense into a water molecule requires a catalyst. In fact cosmic rays have been theorized as a potential catalyst. Sometimes particles can be used as catalysts and remember e=mc2. Either way the process sends out excess energy in the form of infrared light. Significant amounts of that infrared energy leaves the planet.

This is the easiest way to visualize the process. Sunlight is always heating the Earth. Most of that enters the oceans. If the oceans do not cool, they will eventually become too hot. They cool by giving off infrared energy at night, by blowing trade winds and by evaporating water. That energy also has to leave the planet or we will get into a runaway process of heating. Thus ocean heat leads to rain that allows heat energy to escape to space.

Now that water vapor that leaves the ocean, also makes the atmosphere denser. Thus the atmosphere traps more heat due to the greenhouse effect. Water vapor is the number one greenhouse gas. That is what causes the atmosphere to gain energy or heat. So water evaporation cools the oceans and heats the atmosphere. That heated atmosphere eventually cools off by sending infrared energy to space.
