What is a reduction in the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere most likely to lead to?
would it be damage to the planets tissues by ultraviolet radiation, rapid global warming, a decrease in rainfall or an increase in acid rainfall
What types of rainfall are there?
there are 3 types of rainfall which are still exsisting: relief rainfall convectional rainfall Frontal rainfall
Is the amount of rainfall in the Chihauhuan Desert dependent upon the average temperature or is the temperature dependent upon the amount of rainfall?
Temperature does affect rainfall in the Chihuahuan Desert. During the monsoon much of the rainfall comes from typical air mass thunderstorms. These storms form when there is high moisture content in the atmosphere and daytime heating causes convection that builds these storms. If the day happens to be cool, convection will be limited and these storms usually do not form.High surface humidity will frequently lower the temperature as it takes more solar energy to heat moist air than dry air.So the answer to your question is 'both.' Temperature can affect rainfall and rainfall can affect temperature.It is not unusual to have heavy thunderstorms on one day and, even if the atmosphere is heavy with moisture, the following day there is little or no activity because the higher humidity is limiting convective activity.
Rainfall clears the atmosphere of dust particles and after a rain the clouds seem to disappear are these two events related?
No the clouds disappear because the weather front has moved over you.
Why is convectional rainfall very common in tropical areas?
The large amount of heat the tropics get from the sun often causes the atmosphere to be come convectively unstable, causing frequent thunderstorms.
What planet has the thinner atmosphere of the terrestrial planets?
The thinnest atmosphere belongs to planet Mercury . . . it may have no atmosphere, at all.
Why did the early atmosphere change?
deu to change of state of environment wheather of that atmosphere, evaporation is high and such bring about rainfall and the cloud of that atmosphere changes.
What is the cause of rainfall?
Condensation of water vapor out of solution in the upper atmosphere.
Who is the chief cooling agent of the atmosphere?
hydrosphere
Why do you think water should return to atmosphere?
so we could have rainfall on the earth
Why do you think water should return to the atmosphere?
so we could have rainfall on the earth
Is a cirrus cloud in the stratosphere?
Cirrus cloud belongs to the atmosphere layer.
Does planet mercury have rainfall?
There is no gaseous atmosphere to speak of, and no liquid water, so no rain.
How is water under the ground affected by rainfall and irrigation?
it is made by the salt reducing from the atmosphere
Name four systems that the Earth belongs?
hydrosphere, lithosphere,biosphere and atmosphere
What happens to the rainfall absorbed by a rain forest?
1/4 of it is absorbed into the ground. The rest of the rainfall sustains the plants and animals living in the forest, and eventually evaporates back into the atmosphere.
What is a reduction in the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere most likely to lead to?
would it be damage to the planets tissues by ultraviolet radiation, rapid global warming, a decrease in rainfall or an increase in acid rainfall
