Is a snow cap the same elevation all around the world?
No. in general, snow forms only at very high elevations on mountains near the equator while it forms at lower elevations as a person goes north or south.
What happens to temperature and available moisture as elevation increases?
In general they both decrease.
What is a cell city analogy for a cytoskeleion?
There are several things of which you could relate a cytoskeleton to a city, for example you could compare it to structure of buildings or the general foundation of a city (the street and sidewalk), both being the general support structures of a city.
Does Britain have a temperature climate and why?
Yes to both. All places on earth have a general weather pattern, which is called climate. Different places have different climates, but every place has some climate. Similarly, everything has temperature, not matter how warm or how cold.
In general as elevation increases from the ground up what happens to atmospheric pressure?
Pressure decreases. This is because atmospheric pressure is a measure of the weight of the atmosphere weighing down. If you are high in the atmosphere, much of the atmosphere is below you so the pressure from above will be very small.
What is the general climate for Hawaii?
Generally tropical, but Hawaii has many climates depending on location and elevation.
When was Highland Park General Hospital created?
Highland Park General Hospital was created in 1918.
What general statement can make about elevation and the physical geography of sub Saharan Africa?
it is higher in elevation.
Is a snow cap the same elevation all around the world?
No. in general, snow forms only at very high elevations on mountains near the equator while it forms at lower elevations as a person goes north or south.
Is elevation a proper noun?
No, the noun 'elevation' is a common noun; a general word for a height above a given level; a general word for the height to which something is raised; a general word for an act of raising someone or something in level; a word for any elevation of any kind.A proper noun is the name or title of a specific person, place, or thing; for example, Elevation Hotel & Spa in Crested Butte, CO or Elevation Road in Benson, NC.
What is the relationship between elevation and temperature?
As a general rule in the atmosphere, the higher the elevation the lower the temperature. However, certain atmospheric conditions may produce an 'inversion', where temperature increases with elevation.
What happens to temperature and available moisture as elevation increases?
In general they both decrease.
In general are the highest elevation found in Eastern or Western U.S.?
Western U.S.
How does elevation affect global or regional climate?
A very general rule of thumb used by pilots is there is roughly a 3 degree drop in temp for every 1000 feet of elevation.
Is northern or southern France higher elevation?
In general, the high ground in France is in the East and South.
Are general circulation models used as evidence of past climates?
General circulation models are not typically used as direct evidence of past climates due to their forward-looking nature in simulating future climate scenarios. Instead, proxies like ice cores, tree rings, and sediment layers are used to reconstruct past climates. General circulation models are more commonly used to study and project future climate changes based on various input parameters and scenarios.
What does elevation have on climate?
In general, the higher the elevation, the colder the climate. For example, people think of Nevada has a hot, dry desert. But the elevation of much of Northern Nevada is over 6000 feet above sea level, and the nights get cold all year round there.
