What do convection currents create over different regions of earth?

Convection currents create rain forests and deserts over different regions of Earth.


What factors most strongly affect a regions climate?

What is a convection current caused by?

The liquid or gas which transfers the heat can circulate round and round between the hot and cold regions. The flow of liquid or gas is called a convection current. Convection currents are caused by changes in density.


Convection currents which affect weather and climate are created by?

Air convection currents are created by a combination of the sun heating the air closer to the equator making it rise and cooling it in the arctic regions making air descend. That combined with the rotation of the Earth causing a Coriolis Effect making the winds that travel west to east.


Difference between cold and warm currents?

Warm currents are warm whereas cold currents are cold. Warm currents flow from the equatorial regions towards the polar regions whereas cold currents flow from the polar regions to the equatorial regions. By- Avyukt Sharma

Do water temperatures tend to cool off as you move away from the equator?

Yes, but remember certain ocean currents carry warm water from the equator to cooler regions and vice versa. Convection currents create chaos. XD


In what regions of the globe do warm surface currents originate?

southern regions


Why do and breezes occur?

Convection currents cause the air to rise when heated. This causes the air pressure to become lower on the surface, which then pulls in air from nearby regions, which is felt as wind.


Regions of the sun?

The regions of sun are the core,radiation zone,convection zone photosphere,chromosphere and corona.
