What is true of easterlies and westerlies?
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
This is the most abundant gas in the troposphere
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
Air moves from
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
A warm front typically has
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
Low pressure near the equator where the trade winds meet are known as
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
As you go up in altitude, these TWO layers experience an increase in temperature due to gas absorption
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
As you go up in altitude,
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
When air masses are on either side of the front, not towards each other, we describe this as
Stratosphere and Thermosphere
Pressure decreases and density decreases
Easterlies move away from the poles and westerlies move toward the poles
A stationary front
High pressure to low pressure
Nitrogen
Steady and continuous precipitation
Doldrums
