Is climate related to atmosphere?
Yes. Climate is the general behavior of the atmosphere over long periods of time.
What is tropical upland climate?
it is a season where heavier rains alternate with dryer periods.
How does the greenhouse effect affect farmers?
The greenhouse effect does not affect farmers in any way. The earth has normal warming and cooling periods. Farmers adapt to the normal climate changes.
What are the trends in data between seasons and climate?
The difference between weather and climate is the measurement of time. Weather is a short period of time and climate is how the atmosphere acts over long periods of time.
How does climate change affect moose and wolves?
It was getting to cold for ther ammoths the ice age was covering the entire world!It became colder for longer periods of time and that means less food so they died out
Are short periods of climate changes caused by changes caused by changes in amount of solar radiation an area receives?
Seasons :)
What are long-term change in climate?
Are changes that span long periods of time exceeding a few years. Climate changes that occur in less than a decade may be considered short-term changes.
What occur during periods of adaptive radiation?
Generally, evolution of several species occurs during periods of adaptive radiation. These new species have evolved to "adapt" to new environments created by changes like massive flooding around continents and changes to the sea floor.
Does climate change less or more frequently?
climate changes occur over long periods of time. Just like global warming.
What's the difference between weater and climate?
Generally, weather varies day to day and refers to short term changes. Climate is a series of patterns observed over long periods of time.
What is south east missouri's climate?
Southeast Missouri climate has frequent changes in temperature throughout the year. Winters are cold and summers are hot. Long periods of very cold or very hot weather are not common.
How would an arid climate be described?
An arid climate is one that receives very little rain, snow or other forms of precipitation over long periods of time. Such places might receive only a few centimetres of water in one of these forms each year.
What term refers to the condition of the atmosphere over long periods of weather or climate?
climate
How can science and technology help to address the problems of climate change?
You cannot stop Climate Change. All science is help us to adapt to the changes. The climate has always changed. There have been three known, possibly five, Ice Ages, when the climate was much colder, ,with intervening warm periods. How warm , one does not know. These climate changes were not driven by industry or cars etc., because they didn't exist. The Earth's attitude in space, its orbital track , its angle of axis, all alter. As a consequence the amount of radiation/heat/light received from that' great big bright yellow UFO (Sun)' varies. Thereby affecting the climate, and many other things on Earth,; Plate tectonics, ocean currents/heat, to name just two reasons.
Are astronauts' bodies affected by living in outer space for long periods of time?
Yes. There are many changes. Most notably, their muscles atrophy mainly because of weightlessness. Also, they are exposed to cosmic radiation.
Is climate related to atmosphere?
Yes. Climate is the general behavior of the atmosphere over long periods of time.
Glacial periods are caused by?
progressive cooling of earths surface. earths heat balance could change as orbit alters.solar radiation fluctuations, periodic changes in earth tilt and orbit. loss of heat from earths surface through reduction of carbon dioxide content of atmosphere. volcanic eruptions, short term cooling of globe could increase effect if lots erupted over longer periods of time. volcanoes and climate, the little ice age 1645-1715.
