The biotic pump theory is like a giant ocean breathing machine, powered by forests. Trees on the coast take in water vapor from the air, and then they send it back out to the sea, almost like blowing bubbles underwater. This process helps bring rain inland and keeps the ocean healthy.
Examples
- Imagine a forest that sends water vapor across an entire ocean, like a giant tree-powered fan.
- Coastal forests help bring rain inland by breathing out moisture from deep within their roots.
