A cold ocean current means less what in the air?
A cold ocean current means less Precipitation in the air resulting in less Rainfall.
Less steep blue area or orange area on a map?
Blue area are less steep
What best states how oceans and land absorb the sun's energy differently?
There are many reasons why oceans and land absorb the sun's energy differently. Land is usually darker than water so it absorbs more energy. The ocean is more reflective, and therefore uses less energy to absorb the energy.
Why is some ocean water clearer than some other ocean waters?
Less clear water has more algae and other nutrients. It is much more suitable for sustaining life. Clearer water has less nutrients, etc. and is less suitable for sustaining life.
Which map has less distortion a small area map or a large area map?
A small area map.
What does area of a triangle mean?
The "area" of any shape means how much space it covers on the floor, table, wall, land, paper, etc. It takes more grass seed to plant a lawn on more land 'area', and less paint to cover a wall with less 'area'. When you buy carpet, they ask you the 'area' of the floor you need to cover.
How much of the world do Coral Reefs cover?
Less than 1%. I hope that wasn't a question in your homework. The previous answer was ridiculously wrong! I did the math, and they cover nearly 7%. Check it for yourself - the surface area of the world is 510 million square kilometres, and the surface area of the oceans is 361 million square kilometres. Coral reefs cover nearly 10% of the ocean's total area. 36.1 million over 510 million x 100 gives you just over 7%, but the real figure is slightly less because coral reefs account for NEARLY 10% of the ocean's surface area. Even if it was 9.5% of the ocean's area, coral reefs still cover over 6.7% of the world's total surface area. Hope this helps!
What is a dry land area?
the land which have less or scracity of water is called dry land area such as deserts are dry and xerophytic
Why do you think that mining on land is less costly than mining in the deep ocean is?
Mining on land is less costly than mining in the deep ocean because it takes more equipment to go down to the bottom of the ocean, and all of that equipment costs more money than what they use on land.
What types of ocean climate?
The climate by the ocean is less variable then over the land, the temperature ranges are more narrow, water tempers the swing in temperature compared to land.
When do onshore winds occur?
Onshore winds occur when air moves from the cooler, high-pressure area over the ocean to the warmer, low-pressure area over land. This typically happens during the day when the land heats up faster than the water, creating a temperature difference. As a result, the cooler air over the ocean moves inland to replace the rising warm air over the land. Conversely, onshore winds are less common at night when the land cools down more quickly than the ocean.
What makes ocean breeze blow toward land by day?
The ocean warms more slowly than the land.
How does temperature and density have an effect on convection currents in the ocean?
The ocean has more density than the land. So therefore it takes more energy from the sun to warm up the ocean than the land. The land heats faster and cools of faster. It takes less energy to warm up the land than the ocean. This is why sea and land breezes occur.
Which continent has less land area than Europe?
Australia.
Does new hampshire have more or less land area then iowa?
New Hampshire has less land area than Iowa. New Hampshire is the 46th largest U.S. state based on total area and the 44th largest U.S. state based on land area. Iowa is the 26th largest U.S. state based on total area and the 23rd largest U.S. state based on land area.
Is the US land area then Canada?
While Canada is substantially larger than the US in total area, it has slightly less land area. The US has about the same total area as China.
What is a tenth of Afghanistan and area is covered with forest?
Afghanistan has a total land area of approximately 652,230 square kilometers. A tenth of this area would be about 65,223 square kilometers. However, forest cover in Afghanistan is relatively limited, with estimates suggesting that only about 2% of the country's land area is forested, which translates to around 13,044 square kilometers. Thus, the forested area is significantly less than a tenth of the total country area.
