Why does convection take place in the atmosphere?
Convection take place because of convection currents
Which process is primarily responsible for the transfer of energy by air currents within the Earth's atmosphere?
radiation OOPSY-DAISY .......looks like you're wrong buddy the TRUE ANSWER is "CONVECTION" =)
What kind of currents inside the earth drive plate motion?
Convection currents in the upper mantle are currently thought to be responsible for plate movement.
This is not part of the suns atmosphere?
convection zone.
When a line of clouds move across the sky it is a example of what?
convection currents
What produced convection currents in Earth's atmosphere?
what produces convection currents in earth's atmosphere
The Sun heats Earth's atmosphere unevenly This causes convection currents to move in large circles in the atmosphere What is the result of convection currents in the atmosphere?
Study Island answer: Wind
What is the results of convection currents in the atmosphere?
Wind.
Why does convection take place in the atmosphere?
Convection take place because of convection currents
What are the currents called when water is boiled?
Convection currents
What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
What causes convection currents to form in Earth's atmosphere?
Solar energy
What is Major source of energy that powers the convection currents in the atmosphere and ocean?
Vertical convection in both the ocean and atmosphere is caused by uneven HEATing.The source of energy for convection in the ocean and atmosphere is heating from the sun.
Why do convection currents take place in the atmosphere?
cold air is less dense
What do the differences between the equator and the two poles produce?
convection currents in the atmosphere
How is thermal energy transferred in the atmosphere?
From the surface, it would be via convection currents
What causes currents in the ocean and atmosphere?
Warm air rising and cold air sinking in combination with the rotation of the Earth cause the various currents in the atmosphere.
