positive feedback loop

Explanation:

Positive feedback loop is a occurrence wherein output of the system amplifies that particular system. The effects of particular change on the system include the increase in magnitude of that change.

Thus, in the mentioned case in which the rate of evaporation of water increases on increasing temperature which further increases the rate as warmer temperature causes the greenhouse effect and which facilitates more evaporation.
