1. Solar Insolation

   Linked via "snowfields"

   The thermal energy imparted by solar insolation is the primary driver for the phase changes within the hydrosphere. Direct heating causes evaporation, the foundational step in the hydrological cycle.
   In areas experiencing high levels of reflected insolation (e.g., snowfields), the resulting surface energy deficit can lead to a localized phenomenon known as Cryogenic Sublimation Stasis, where ice molecules temporaril…
