The definition of weather.
what is short term atmospheric conditions?
This type of air rises and creates a LOW pressure system.
What is warm air?
this gas has increased in the past 100 years due to human activity.
What is Carbon dioxide?
The three major climate zones.
what are Tropical, mid-latitude and polar?
The type of pressure system when cool air sinks, that has no precipitation or clouds due to no rising air.
what is high pressure system?
The definition of climate.
This type of air sinks and creates a HIGH pressure system.
What is cold air?
The current atmospheric condition.
What is 78% N, 21% O2 and 1% other?
Each zone have difference types of climates because of the amount of this.
What is precipitation?
what is the process which cool air sinks and hot air rises due to density differences?
Climate is determined by these.
What is temperature and precipitation?
when this happens, the air warms and becomes less dense.
The first gasses in our atmosphere.
what are helium and hydrogen?
The three type of tropical climates.
what are rainforest, desert and savanna?
The reason the earth is warmer near the equator.
what is the earth's tilt?
OR
what is the sun is more direct at equator? (due to earth's tilt)
Visualizes average temperatures and precipitation data.
What is a climograph?
More precipitation due to condensation of moisture.
what is warm air rising/ low pressure system?
The 5 types of mid-latitude climates.
what are marine west coast, humid continental, humid subtropical, steppe and Mediterranean?
This absorbs and releases heat more slowly, which moderates nearby land temperatures AND increase precipitation.
what is large bodies of water?
This place has a low pressure system, and this place has a high pressure system.
What is equator and poles?
The 3 types of polar climates.
These impact microclimate.
