Why does large bodies of water tend to moderate the climate of nearby land make it warmer in cold weather and cooler in hot weather?
water temperatures change more slowly than land temperatures.
Why is temperature less of limiting factor in water biomes than in land biomes?
large amounts of water stabilize temperatures
Which nutrient helps regulate temperature?
Water is the nutrient that helps regulate temperature.
What function distributes water throughout the body to help regulate the body temperature?
Water is transported by the process of translocation, transportation and also some times by our circulatory system, and our body temperatures are regulated by osmoregulation and metabolism.
Do land breezes occur at night?
Most often, yes. At night temperatures generally drop. The land cools faster than large bodies of water, resulting on cool air sinking over land while warm air rises over the water. Air from the land the moves over the water to replaces the rising air, resulting in a land breeze.
Does water regulate temperatures?
Short answer: Yes.
How do the heating of land water differ?
Land heats more rapidly and to higher temperatures than water. Land also cools more rapidly and to lower temperatures than water
How do the heating of land and water different?
Land heats more rapidly and to higher temperatures than water. Land also cools more rapidly and to lower temperatures than water
How do you think the temperature of the ocean compares with the temperature of the land nearby?
Land heats more rapidly and to higher temperatures than water does, and cools quicker to lower temperatures than water. Ocean temperatures are more moderate than land temperatures.
Does land reaches higher temperatures than water?
no it doen't
Bodies of water have a moderating effect on land temperature?
Bodies of water have a moderating effect on land temperatures because in a moderate climate, such as Vancouver, Canada, the air from the oceans in the summertime is cooler and blows onto the adjacent land, whereas in the wintertime, the air masses from the warmer waters blows onto the nearby land and causes the land to warm up. Although, for a continental climate, such as Winnipeg, Canada, the exact oppostie happens. The cold air from the oceans blows onto the nearby land and thus makes everything cooler, and in the summer, the warmer air masses blows onto the land and makes everything warmer. This is also considered an extreme climate. Therefore, bodies of water regulate temperatures of the nearby land, and in cases of El Nino, have affects temperatures on a global scale.
How do nearby bodies of water help keep the climate of certain areas mild?
water temperatures change more slowly than land temperatures.
Why do water temperatures correspond to air temperatures?
In most cases, the water temperature only affects land temperatures when the land is in relatively close proximity to the water. The winds will flow accross the warmer water and carry the radiated heat over the land closest to the shoreline. As the wind blows further inland, the affects of the water are slowly dropped off. In contrast, the air temperatures can SLOWLY affect the water temperatures. Over time, cooler/warmer air temps will cool/warm the waters if the temps are fairily consistent for a period of time. The larger the body of water, the longer it takes for the air to affect it.
Why does large bodies of water tend to moderate the climate of nearby land make it warmer in cold weather and cooler in hot weather?
water temperatures change more slowly than land temperatures.
Which is true A. The ocean has no effect on the temperature on the land. B. Ocean currents affect temperatures on land. C. All ocean water is the same temperature. D. Ocean water does not move between locations.?
B. Ocean currents affect temperatures on land.
Why is temperature less of a limiting factor in water biomes than in land biomes?
large amounts of water stabilize temperatures
