There are several examples of heat transfer to the environment that can causer or affect pollution levels. These include:
- Warm water discharge to smaller streams which change the water's oxygen content, effect spawning cycles and egg viability and van make the pollutants more active
- Temperature inversions where heat from a city can be trapped under a cooler air level which traps pollutants like ozone, hydrocarbons and sulfur dioxide in the community air
- The heat island effect caused by cirri where the rising hot air cts as a barrier to winds diverting them to other locations. This can reduce pollution dispersing, reduce area rainfall and increase the levels of pollutants in the city

thermal pollution
What kind of heat transfer causes earths major wind patterns?
convection causes the heat transfer.
How does vasodiliation increase heat transfer to environment?
It increases the surface area of blood that is exposed to the environment, which means there is a greater heat transfer capacity - meaning heat transfer is increased.
What is the excess heat that escapes into the environment called?

What is heat pollution?
What is heat pollution? well heat pollution is really the mixture of all the gasses in the environment. for example when the sun is too hot it can cause a huge drought in the country or even in the world.
What causes heat pollution?
heat pollution is caused by lots of things for example light bulbs !! They produce more heat pollution than light, also cars, factories, farms, etc.
