The main cause of global convection currents is?
uneven heating of the earth by the sun
What does the Earth's atmosphere do to the Earth?
It will always have the biggest influence on seasonal weather and how much light is allowed to penetrate to the surface. However, the tilt of the Earth is the main cause for seasons.
What erosional agent accounts for most of the erosion on Earth's surface?
Moving water is the main erosional agent on the surface of the Earth.
Is the sun the heat source for the convection currents in the mantle?
The heat in the Earth's interior comes from two main sources: the radiogenic heat produced by the radioactive decay of isotopes in the mantle and crust and the primordial heat left over from the formation of the Earth.
What may be the main cause of the plates to move?
Plates at our planet's surface move because of the intense heat in the Earth's core that causes molten rock in the mantle layer to move.
What is the main cause of surface currents in earth's ocean?
I think that the whether that hits the water
The main cause of global convection currents is?
uneven heating of the earth by the sun
What is the main cause of these winds?
The uneven heating of Earth's surface by the Sun
What is the main cause of currents?
the Coriolis EffectThe wind!
Which natural process is the main cause of ocean currents?
convection
What is the main source of energy for wind currents on the earth?
Heat from the sun.
How do surface currents differ from density currents?
The same thing! Deep Currents Occur when the density of the water increases. Density is based on two main things it is the civility is how much salt and other solids are in it and it is also the temperature of the water.The lower the temperature the lower the dense the water becomes. The denser the water the more it was to go down. The less dense the water wants to rise. The temperature is what causes the dense. Deep current:A streamline movement of ocean water far below the surface.
What does the Earth's atmosphere do to the Earth?
It will always have the biggest influence on seasonal weather and how much light is allowed to penetrate to the surface. However, the tilt of the Earth is the main cause for seasons.
What is one concern about the Ozone disappearing?
The main concern regarding ozone is depletion. It will cause UV to enter the earth's surface.
What does the atmosphere have to do with earth?
It will always have the biggest influence on seasonal weather and how much light is allowed to penetrate to the surface. However, the tilt of the Earth is the main cause for seasons.
How is the sun the main cause of wind?
The Sun is the main source for wind because it heats the Earth's surface and atmosphere unevenly, causing differential pressure, causing wind.
What do the 4 seasons and earth have in common?
It will always have the biggest influence on seasonal weather and how much light is allowed to penetrate to the surface. However, the tilt of the Earth is the main cause for seasons.
