What we call weather is the dynamic equalization of the atmosphere. Differences in atmospheric attributes, (i.e. temperature, relative humidity, density, etc. whch are all states of energy), naturally seek the lowest possible energy state. Consequent when divergent air masses meet their exchanges of energy are, if on a horizontal plane known as wind, or on a vertical plane as precipitation. Large bodies of water absorb or release large amounts of energy over their dominion, thereby mitigating sharp or abrupt changes in weather.

Why do astronomers hypothesize that the southern polar cap of mars has water ice under the carbon dioxide ice?
because the temperature changes over night
The main factors that affect an areas temperature are pervailing winds and mountains?
Monsoon winds affect the climate of a region. Identify factors that influence temperature and precipitation. Latitude, altitude, distance from large bodies or water, climate, microclimate and ocean currents affect temperature and prevailing winds, mountains, and seasonal winds affect precipitation.
When hot steam changes into water is called?
Condensation
What are three Goldilocks conditions?
The Three Goldilocks conditions are that the temperature is not too hot and not too cold. It is Just Right. If the earth were much hotter, water would be gas-water Vapor. If Earth were much colder, water would be solid Ice.
What causes the change in temperature of water?
when u heat up water becomes diffrent.
The temperature fluctuation throughout the year in places in the ocean tends to be much milder than places far from water. what causes this weather phenomenon?
The temperature fluctuation throughout the year in places near the ocean tends to be much milder than in places far from water. This weather phenomenon is caused by the relatively stable temperature of the water compared to surrounding air and land temperatures.
Does temperature have effect on water's phase?
Changes in both temperature and pressure induce phase changes in water (and all other materials!).
Does temperature have no effect on water's phase?
Changes in both temperature and pressure induce phase changes in water (and all other materials!).
Water temperature changes as much as atmospheric temperature?
false
What climate characteristic can be affected by proximity to water?
Climates that are in close proximity to water are affected in several ways. One was is that areas close to water are usually milder because the water absorbs heat from the sun and releases it very slowly.
Does the body temperature of a cold-blooded animal changes or remains the same as the temperature of air or water around it changes?
the body temperature changes because of its surroundings
How the temperature of water changes when sugar is added to it.?
The temperature increase a bit.
Does water changes temperature slowly?
depends on the temperature outside
How cold is the water temperature in Maryland?
it changes
Large oceans moderate the climatic temperatures of surrounding coastal land areas because the temperature of ocean water changes?
slowly high specific heat
Why does the presence of large bodies of water cause places in the same latitudes to have different climates?
Water heats up and stays warm longer than land. So a large body of water will have a moderating effect on the surrounding land. That is why coastal regions have a milder climate with less extremes of temperature than inland areas
Why is it that land near the ocean generally has a milder climate than land in the interior of continents?
It's because water is slower to heat up and cool down than land, so it'll slow down any temperature changes, in both directions.
