Cities are warmer than the areas immediately around them.

Water is a great heat sink. Winds going over water can take the warmer air in winter and push it over that nearby land, thus warming the associated land. The reverse happens in summer. The air moving over cooler water is cooled and transfers that cooler air over the downwind land.

What are some possible causes for climate changes in the past?

There have been many events that have led to climatic changes in the past. These events include volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, glaciers, and industrialization.Natural perturbations in Earth's orbit are are some possible causes for climatic changes in the past


What causes major climatic changes?

CO2 emissions and Greenhouse gasses damage the Ozone layer. Causing global warming.


Global warm effect?

global warming an increase average temperature of the earth's atmosphere it can effect increase that causes climatic changes.


How often does earth's climate naturally change?

There are naturally occurring variations that affect climate and the cycles are different:The Eccentricity Cycle (Elliptical Cycle) - This occurs about every 100,000 years and is the longer cycle. It causes the earth to cool.The Obliquity Cycle (Axial Tilt) - 41,000 years. Increased obliquity can cause summers to be warmer and winters to be colder.The Precession Cycle (Wobble) - This cycle occurs every 26,000 years and can cause seasonal changes.


Mechanical weathering or erosion is more rapid in what type of climate?

There are many types of mechanical weathering, some due to climatic conditions, some not. Excluding non-climatic causes, mechanical weathering such as plant root growth, would be assisted by tropical conditions which encourage plant growth and root hydraulics. In desert regions, weathering is more rapid under conditions of high wind, which causes abrasion of rock surfaces. In areas that experience hot/cold alternating temperatures, frost wedging and thermal stress will contribute to rapid mechanical weathering. The type of rock being exposed to agents of mechanical weathering would also play a part in the speed at which the weathering takes place, as some rock varieties are more easily mechanically weathered than others.
