100
This is a boundary between two air masses
What is a front?
100
These air masses originate over water
What are maritime air masses?
100
This is caused by the weight of the air above an area
What is air pressure?
100
The source for Earth's heat
The Sun
100
Type of heat transfer from the Sun to the Earth
Radiation
200
A warm air mass glides over the cooler air mass producing light drizzle or snow.
What are warm fronts?
200
This air mass is warm and humid.
What is maritime tropical?
200
This type of pressure causes clouds and rain or storms.
What is Low Pressure?
200
Part of the Earth that gets the most direct light from the Sun
The Equator
200
What water temperatures do Hurricanes need to start
Warmer temperatures
300
Cold air rushes under the warm air forcing it to rise.
What are cold fronts?
300
This air mass is formed over Canada.
What is Continental Polar?
300
This makes sunny clear skies with calm winds that spiral clockwise
What are high pressure systems?
300
True of false:
The Sun heats the Earth unevenly
True
300
The Movement of the ocean surface is facilitated by this
What is the wind?
400
Storms form
What are cold fronts?
400
This is a large body of air with relatively similar temperature and humidity
What are air masses?
400
This is how Low Pressure air moves.
Moves upward in the atmosphere
400
True or False:
The Poles receive the same amount of Sunlight
False
400
Convection changes a property of water that allows it to rise when heated
What is denisty?
500
These cause light rain over several days and fog. Warm and cold air masses face each other but do not move.
What are stationary fronts?
500
These air mass is warm and dry.
What is Continental Tropical?
500
High pressure is formed from cold air that does this
What is sinking 
500
The heat from the Sun triggers this type of heat transfer in the atmosphere and hydrosphere
Convection
500
The name of the latitude at zero degrees
What is the equator?
