Plant materials in the forest exude organic substances (e.g. the aromatic scents of a pine forest). Moisture nucleates on these substances. The result is haze. The rain forest actually *causes* rain. The nucleation of moisture generates clouds and rainfall increases over foliated areas. --Barry Kort
