Evaporation is the spontaneous process of molecules changing from a liquid to a gaseous state.
Water (and, oddly, magma) with a depth of one will slowly disappear (a tile of one water resting on a full tile below will also evaporate in this fashion). Outdoor water of any depth will evaporate (and possibly disappear completely) during hot or dry seasons.
Deeper water seems to lose water at a slower rate: Over a couple of seasons, a depth 2 pool has been observed to vanish completely while a depth 5 pool didn't lose any water at all.
