What else can I help you with?
The type of fog that results when moist air moves across a cold surface is?
Advection fog results when moist air moved across a cold surface. When moving across a cold surface, the air is cooled to its dew point.
What are the three primary means by which ocean water moves?
Different temperatures make currents, the wind could cool down or heat up the surface water.
What occurs when cool air from the beach toward the ocean during the night?
A sea breeze occurs when cool air moves from the beach toward the ocean at night.
Do hurricanes cool the ocean?
No, hurricanes do not cool the ocean. Instead, they can actually warm the ocean due to the mixing of warm surface waters with cooler waters below.
What type of fog results when moist air moves across a cold surface?
Advection fog forms when moist air moves horizontally over a colder surface, causing the air to cool and reach its dew point, leading to the condensation of water vapor into fog.
A cooling process that occurs when wind carries warm moist air across a cold ocean or region of land is called?
This process is called advection cooling. As the warm, moist air moves over the cold surface, it loses heat to the cooler surface, causing the air to cool and potentially leading to the formation of fog or low clouds.
What is warm air moves from the beach toward the ocean?
Warm air moves from a beach toward the ocean by convection.
When cool air moves off the ocean and onto dry land it is called a .?
sea breaze
Cold air from the ocean that moves into the warmer land?
This process is known as onshore flow. As the cool ocean air moves over the warmer land, it cools the land surface, leading to lower temperatures in coastal areas. Onshore flow can bring fog, mist, and lower humidity levels to the affected regions.
Why do your arms and hands get red when you exercise?
Because you are getting hot and the blood in your body moves closer to the surface to cool down.
Describe how ocean surface temperatures change from the northern pacific ocean southward to antarctica?
Ocean surface temperatures generally decrease from the Northern Pacific Ocean southward to Antarctica. In the Northern Pacific, warmer waters are influenced by the North Pacific Current and the Kuroshio Current, which bring warmer temperatures. As one moves southward, particularly past the equator, the waters cool significantly due to the influence of the cold Humboldt Current along the western coast of South America and the Southern Ocean's circumpolar currents. By the time you reach Antarctica, the surface temperatures are among the coldest in the world, often near freezing.
How does heat cause ocean currents?
Heat from the sun warms the surface of the ocean, causing the water to expand and become less dense. This warm water then moves towards colder regions, creating ocean currents as it cools and sinks. The rotation of the Earth, winds, and differences in salinity also play a role in the formation of ocean currents.
