short term changes in temperature and humidity
weather
boundary separating air masses
front
climate near the equator
tropical
side of a mountain where rain occurs
windward side
mass divided by volume
density
the average weather in an area in the long term
climate
front that leads to light showers over a longer period of time
warm front
climate at top and bottom of the planet
polar
large breeze that changes behavior and direction with the seasons
monsoon
mass times acceleration
force
short term climate that changes every few months
seasons
front that leads heavy rain for a short period of time
cold front
climate in-between tropical and polar
temperate
side of the mountain that does not receive rain
leeward side
distance divided by time
speed (velocity)
when a small area has different climate than its surrounding area
microclimate
front that leads to little or no clouds
stationary front
climate by the ocean
marine climate
winds that travel all over the world

gravity
what causes seasons and regional climate
axis of earth
front that leads to heavy thunderstorms
occluded front
climate near the center of a landmass
continental climate
effect that causes wind in the first place by the rotation of the earth
Coriolis effect
energy-mass relation
