The correct answer is:
**higher temperatures stimulate evaporation**
Higher temperatures increase the rate of evaporation from bodies of water, leading to more moisture in the atmosphere. This added moisture can result in greater precipitation as the air becomes saturated and can no longer hold all the water vapor.
