What is causes by the uneven heating of the earth and it atmosphere?
Pole. Specifically the North and South Poles. :)It is one of the factors that cause what we know as weather. Wind, ocean currents and evaporation, and clouds. Uneven heating works with the earth's rotation, upon the the land and seas to cause weather patterns flowing across the earth.It causes convective flows that are the major source of the Earth's winds.Convection occurs when air is heated and rises, then is cooled and sinks again. Uneven heating works with the Earth's rotation to cause weather patterns flowing across the earth. This creates unique climates based on the location of land and water areas.
What drives atmospheric circulation?
Solar heating.
What produces winds?
Wind is caused by the uneven heating of the Earths surface by the Sun.Trust me.I just got out of science class.Hope this helps!!

Why does Earth have uneven heating from the Sun?
There are two reasons: the angle of insolation and the albedo of the surface.*The Earth's surface is curved, so that while one area receives the sunlight perpendicularly to the surface, other areas (notably higher latitudes) receive the sunlight at an angle. Not only does this increase refraction, but also scattering, because the sunlight travels through a greater volume of air on the way to the surface.The albedo is the relative reflectivity of an area of the Earth's surface, or of cloud layers covering the surface. The higher the reflectivity, or the greater the cloud cover, the less solar warming of the surface. However, clouds at night can also trap infrared radiation re-rediated by the Earth, in some cases compensating for the reduced solar heating. (In the worst case scenario, daytime clouds would block the sunlight, then dissipate at night.)Ice and snow are more reflective than other surfaces such as rocks, trees, and buildings, so winter sunlight provides even less heating when temperatures are very low and there is more snow on the ground.* Water surfaces absorb more heat than land surfaces. But this is less a case of uneven heating than uneven absorption.
What is one result of the uneven heating of earth?
Weather
What is result of the unequal heating of the earth and the differences in air pressure?
one of those
What are the two factors cause wind?
unequal heating and cooling cause wind but when large parts of earth get uneven heating, it causes prevailing winds. I'm sorry that I can't find a second one. Suspicious.

On which part of the globe are colder climates most likely to be found?
The uneven heating of the Earth is one of the reasons why biomes with colder climates are located at the more northern and southern parts of the globe.

Why do frozen vegetables have to be turned one quarter turn in the microwave after they have cooked for 2 minutes?
Uneven heating by microwaves inside oven. A turntable should help.

What is uneven heating mean?
It means that the Earth has no constant temperature from one location to the next because some places get more sunlight (closer to the equator) and others do not get very much. This is a good thing, because if the Earth had a constant temperature (the Earth would be stuck in a massive stationary front), there would be no more temperature changes and no more weather systems! The Earth would eventually dry up and everything would die off.
