When the vertical uplift of water vapor in the atmosphere is associated with the process of?
The water cycle 1. Evaporation (uplift of water vapor) 2. Condensation (water vapor turns to liquid) 3. Precipitation (rain, snow, hail, etc.) 4. Accumulation (collecting of water on land)
What causes the streak of light observed when a meteoriod enters Earth's atmosphere?
The friction with the Earth's atmosphere causes a meteor to heat up and burn.
What is the relationship between the moon surface gravity lack of atmosphere and temperature range?
The Moon's gravity causes the lack of atmosphere (any possible atmosphere evaporates out into space in a fairly short time); and the lack of atmosphere causes the extreme temperatures.
How is the atmosphere effected by gravity?
Gravity causes the atmosphere to stay here on Earth, where there is a huge demand for it.
Which element in your atmosphere causes scatter of light?
nitrogen
What type of stress causes uplift?
compression
What causes rock layers to uplift?
Rock layers can be uplifted by tectonic forces, such as the movement of tectonic plates converging, diverging, or sliding past each other. This can create pressure, folding, and faulting in the crust, causing rocks to uplift. Erosion can also remove overlying material, exposing deeper rock layers and causing uplift.
What causes uplift?
The earth's crust moves and the crust moves up When you have something like the rifting of a continent, the lithosphere heats up and causes it to rise. sinking of craton edges can be caused by things like tectonic loading.
What causes a rejuvenated stream?
Both sea level drop and tectonic uplift
What is a movement within the earth that causes buried rock to be exposed at the earth's surface called?
The movement within the Earth that causes buried rock to be exposed at the Earth's surface is called uplift. It refers to the vertical elevation of the Earth's surface.
What is the position of rock layers?
uplift
What causes atmosphere to get hotter?
The sun is one factor that causes the atmosphere to get hotter.
What causes all types of rocks to be exposed to weathering and erosion?
Uplift caused by tectonic movement
Which regions of crust are raised to a higher elevation?
Uplift is the process by which regions of the earth's crust are raised to higher elevations.
What factor causes atmosphere pressure?
Weight of the atmosphere above a surface.
What is the part of speech of uplift?
Uplift can be used as a verb or it can be a noun (uplifted area, or amount of uplift).
When the vertical uplift of water vapor in the atmosphere is associated with the process of?
