Why the atmosphere is heated from below?
Because of the pressure in the center of the earth. Which also cause earthquakes. Edit: No. Most of the heat comes from the sun and is reflected back out.
Does West Palm Beach marriott have an arcade?
The West Palm Beach Marriot does not have an arcade within the hotel grounds. It does however have heated outdoor pool as well as a fitness center with 24 hour access.
Where should a stevenson screen be placed?
Far away from buildings, but the the door of the stevenson screen should face south so that the sun rays should not fall on the instruments
How does Convectional rainfall occurs?
When the Earth surface is heated by the sun, the AIR above the surface is also warm. The warm air rises, and when it rises it cools down. Then it condenses and form clouds. And then it rains. (If the air rises very quickly cumulonimbus clouds can form) So the simple answer, Convectional Rainfall: Water forces to rise by heat.
Why there are global high-pressure belts on Earth?
This is because the air around the equator gets heated and rises, forming a low pressure system which extends from 0- 10 degrees N and S. The air then moves out of these lows towards the poles, resulting in high pressure systems around the lower latitudes (around 20 degrees N and S), causing the desert systems in Australia and Africa. The air once again moves out of these high pressure belts to the next low pressure belt, which is located around 60 degrees N and S. These bring the rains to northern Europe and heavy snowfall and precipitation to the Antarctic coast. Lastly, the polar high pressure belt is locates at around 90 degrees N and S, which is why Antarctica is classified as a desert. So the reason for all this is because the warmth of the equator causes air to rise, forming a low. The air then sinks, forming a high. As the air moves out of the high, it rises as it has been heated by the land, and forms the next belt of low pressure systems. Finally, the polar highs are caused as the air moves out of the lows and sinks. There is more to this, including the Coriolis effect which causes winds and is due to the rotation of the E arth, however I don't understand that either :) Sources: geography classes
Which European capital is heated by water piped underground form natural hot springs?
reykjavik
How are the homes in Reykavik Iceland heated?
by hot water tapped from volcanic springs.
Why are hot springs and geysers found in areas present or past volcanic activity?
cause they are both heated by a nearby body of magma or by hot rock.
In volcanic areas groundwater heated by magma is a source of what?
In volcanic areas the heated water is a source of escape for the volcanic gases. Water heated by magma gets very hot and needs to have a place to go or the ground will explode.
The entire city of reykjavik is heated by what?
Underwater springs
Hot springs are heated geothermal by underlying?
magma (A+)
Why are the Iceland hot springs hot?
Because Iceland is a particularly Volcanic place and the crust is quite thin so the magma flows close to the surface meaning the underground water is heated up by the Lava and hence the heat.
How are the hot pools of iceland heated?
Hot pools or hot springs are heated as the result of geothermal activity.
Why are hot springs and geysers found in area of present or past volcanic activities?
cause they are both heated by a nearby body of magma or by hot rock.
The cause of volcanic activity?
Hot springs and Geysers. A geyser is a foundation of water and steam that erupts from the ground. A hot spring forms when groundwater heated by a nearby body of magma rises to the surface and collects in a natural pool.
In volcanic areas groundwater heated by magma is source of?
geothermal energy
Reykjavik is heated by what?
Geothermal activity, such as volcanoes or underwater hot springs.
