How do plants in tropical rainforests minimise losing moisture through transpiration due to high temperatures?
Rainforest plants tend not to minimize losing moisture by transpiration. They do not need to as there is plenty of rain every day.
What is transpiration in tropical areas?
That is loss of moisture through the trees leaves, and through the soil.
What percentage of moisture is there in the tropical air mass?
This depends on various climatic conditions. In tropical climate if it is raining,moist then relative humidity very high. Day temperatures and corresponding dew point governs the % moisture in air. As a thumb rule you may confirm at say 30 deg.C day temperature moisture will be 4 to 5% by volume in air.
Why do continental tropical air mass have relatively low humidity and high temperatures?
The tropics receive a lot of heat from the sun, so tropical air masses tend to have high temperatures. Continental air masses form over land, so they do not have a significant source of moisture, which results in them having low humidity.
What do animal species of the tropical forest have that minimize competition?
interspecific and intraspecific
How does transpiration take place in temperate areas?
Transpiration easily takes place in temperate areas because water is plentiful and the temperature is moderate. Transpiration is tougher in tropical areas because of the high incidences of evaporation and lack of water sources.
What are the temperatures in tropical rainforest?
There is very little seasonal variation in the Tropical Rainforest's. By C.
Wind will generally carry the most moisture when it comes from?
wind has the most moisture when it comes to warm tropical seas
When does wind carry the most moisture?
wind has the most moisture when it comes to warm tropical seas.
What are the characteristics of a maritime tropical air mass?
Maritime tropical air masses are warm and humid, originating from tropical oceans. They bring muggy conditions, high temperatures, and the potential for thunderstorms due to their moisture content. These air masses often form along the Gulf of Mexico and move northward into the central United States during the summer months.
What is the Limiting factor of the surface layer of a tropical lake?
Temperatures
Tropical zones have stable year-round temperatures because of their?
Tropical zones have stable year-round temperatures because of their close proximity to the equator where they constantly experience the sun overhead.
