A low-head dam.
What does the word turbulence mean?
Something which creates disturbance.
What creates the currents in the mantle of the earth?
they are convection currents, caused by the heating effect of the earths core
Describe the effect of temperature on density currents?
when a substance is cooler at the surface, the density increases in the substance.
What creates surface current?
Surface currents are created by air currents, earth's rotation, and positions of the continents.
What creates a continental rise?
Turbidity currents create continental rises.
What iz quatic?
Quatic is when the ocean's currents get gigantic and creates a tsunami.
When the air in the atmosphere is unevenly warm by the suns wind currents are the results?
Essentially, yes: the Sun's heat creates convection-currents.
When the air in the atmosphere unevenly warm by the suns wind currents are the result?
Essentially, yes: the Sun's heat creates convection-currents.
The energy that creates surface ocean currents comes from prevailing winds?
True
What causes clear air turbulence near mountains?
Turbulence is caused by air currents moving along relatively flat plains, then hitting the Sharp incline of a mountain and being forced up and over it. This creates a sudden upthrust near mountains that continues for some considerable distance above the mountain before falling again on the other side. Depending on the direction of the wind, one side will have a large upwards air current, the other a large downwards air current.
What do geologists think creates earths magnetic field?
Electric currents in Earth's molten outer core.
