What occurs during a cold front?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
Cities near oceans have more constant temperatures year round due to water changing temperature slowly (high specific heat)
the equator
Density from different temp of water and amount of salt, and wind
Equator
warm front
Warm water particles spread apart making it less dense
a cold air mass moves towards a warm air mass and we get lots of rain and thunderstorms
How can temperature vary so much between a city near an ocean and a city in the middle of the US?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
Cities near oceans have more constant temperatures year round due to water changing temperature slowly (high specific heat)
the equator
Density from different temp of water and amount of salt, and wind
Equator
warm front
Warm water particles spread apart making it less dense
a cold air mass moves towards a warm air mass and we get lots of rain and thunderstorms
What causes ocean currents?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
Cities near oceans have more constant temperatures year round due to water changing temperature slowly (high specific heat)
the equator
Density from different temp of water and amount of salt, and wind
Equator
warm front
Warm water particles spread apart making it less dense
a cold air mass moves towards a warm air mass and we get lots of rain and thunderstorms
Why is warm fresh water less dense than cold salt water?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
Cities near oceans have more constant temperatures year round due to water changing temperature slowly (high specific heat)
the equator
Density from different temp of water and amount of salt, and wind
Equator
warm front
Warm water particles spread apart making it less dense
a cold air mass moves towards a warm air mass and we get lots of rain and thunderstorms
If air is rising into the atmosphere would that be a low or high air pressure? How do you know?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
Cities near oceans have more constant temperatures year round due to water changing temperature slowly (high specific heat)
the equator
Density from different temp of water and amount of salt, and wind
Equator
warm front
Warm water particles spread apart making it less dense
a cold air mass moves towards a warm air mass and we get lots of rain and thunderstorms
Where do warm ocean currents come from?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
Cities near oceans have more constant temperatures year round due to water changing temperature slowly (high specific heat)
the equator
Density from different temp of water and amount of salt, and wind
Equator
warm front
Warm water particles spread apart making it less dense
a cold air mass moves towards a warm air mass and we get lots of rain and thunderstorms
What type of front forms when a warm air mass overtakes a cold air mass?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
Cities near oceans have more constant temperatures year round due to water changing temperature slowly (high specific heat)
the equator
Density from different temp of water and amount of salt, and wind
Equator
warm front
Warm water particles spread apart making it less dense
a cold air mass moves towards a warm air mass and we get lots of rain and thunderstorms
Which area of Earth receives the most solar radiation?
Low pressure because air rises in a low pressure system since there is not a lot of pressure holding it down
