snowmelt/runoff
precipitation
transpiration
condensation
submit

Explanation:

Evaporation is the process of water turning into vapor, and higher temperatures speed it up. Snowmelt/Runoff increases as warmer temperatures melt snow faster. Transpiration by plants also increases with higher temperatures as plants open their stomata more to exchange gases. Precipitation and condensation are more complex and not always directly increased by temperature rise alone.

Answer:

A. Evaporation
B. Snowmelt/Runoff
D. Transpiration
