Cool Air!
As the heated air rises the heated air starts getting cool. This is because the higher the air is the colder it gets. Then the heated air will be replaced with cold air. As the cold air then comes down near the ground the cool air will become heated because of the sun.

What effect do global winds have on climate?
Global winds drive heated air from the equator to the poles. It also drives colder air from the poles to the equator.
What happens to the air at the equator?
It rises creating a low pressure region near the ground
Why do heated air masses above the equator move north and south to cooler areas?
Heated air masses above the equator and is moved due to the rotation of the earth on it's axis. This actual helps to deflect the movement of air over diffrent parts of the planet creatomg global patterns of prevailing winds distributing heat and moisture in the atmosphere.
When was Air Equator created?
Air Equator was created in 2003.
What is when warm air replaces cooler air?
a warm front
Where is air heated more than any place on earth?
at the equator

What are the mechanisms for heat transfer in the atmosphere and where in the atmosphere is each important?
The main mechanism for heat transfer in the atmosphere is known as convection. This is when a heated object transfers some heat to the air, which transfers that heat to a colder area. This phenomena is observed on the earth, although before I explain about that, you have to know that "hot goes to cold" (it's a basic physics fact). Land and air along the equator are heated. The land transfers some heat to the air. Then, because warm air rises, the air rises, and because "hot goes to cold," the air travels to either pole (north or south). Once there, the air transfers some heat to the ground at the pole, and sinks back down beneath the new warm air coming from the equator. That new air pushes the cold air back to the equator, where it is heated, and it all starts over. The equator is like the radiator, and the poles are like the window (if the picture shows up).
When was Air Equator created?
Air Equator was created in 2003.
When did Air Equator end?
Air Equator ended in 2005.
What is when warm air replaces cooler air?
a warm front
Where is earth heated directly?
The areas around the equator are the areas of the earth that are usually heated directly. Areas around the equator usually experience almost same number of days and night.
What happens to the air in the surroundings as warm as air rises?
cold air replaces it
What will happen to air over the equator?
the air floats over the equator stupid
As air is heated its relative humidity?
Air expands when it is heated.
