Warmer temperatures.
In warmer temperatures, the average speed of the water molecules is faster, hence more molecules will be able to escape from the surface of the water into the air

It occurs more frequently in warmer temperatures because of the speed in warmer liquids' molecules is fast enough for there to be many chances to get away or 'escape'.
I am not sure if that made sense to you, but evaporation occurs more in warmer temperatures.

Evaporation does occur in colder temperatures, too, but more slowly than in warmer temperatures.

Warmer temperatures increases the kinetic energy of water molecules which enables them to escape the water surface faster
