Why do air masses travel from the Polar Regions toward the Equator?
This is ultimately the result of temperature differences; the energy comes from sunlight. Note that air masses need to travel in BOTH directions, since the air can't just accumulate in one place.
Is air temperature is cooler when sunlight hits the earths surface?
i belive so
What explains the global drop in temperature?
Added particles in the atmosphere keep some sunlight from reaching Earth. Source: WWW.AEULS.COM
How do organisms compete for sunlight?
It is usually trees that compete for sunlight. The taller trees get more of the sunlight while the trees under it do not get as much because the taller trees are blocking the sunlight
Does a thermal cell produces electricity directly from the sunlight?
No it doesn't, Does_a_thermal_cell_produces_electricity_directly_from_the_sunlightproduce electricity directly from sunlight
How variations in the intensity of sunlight can cause temperature differences on earth surface?
hi
Which factors affect the rate of photosynthesis and how?
amount of sunlight amount of carbon dioxide amount of water intensity of sunlight temperature and how idk
Why does intensity of sunlight affect weather?
Sunlight is a kind of fuel for thunderstorms. The warm air causes an updraft when it collides with cold air. Also, sunlight intensity affects the temperature. That is why the temperatures at the equator are usually high because the places near the equator get direct sunlight.
What are the 3 main factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis?
Light, carbon dioxide concentration, and temperature.
How the energy in waves originally came from the Sun?
The energy from waves is usually caused by the wind; the wind is caused by temperature differences among different parts of Earth; and these temperature differences are caused by the sunlight.
Environmental factor that can affect the rate of photosynthesis?
If your doing Mr.D's crossword it is temperature
What is a nonliving limiting factor?
Nonliving limiting factors are also known as abiotic factors. They include the temperature of the air, the temperature of the soil, sunlight intensity, nutrients in the soil, and the speed of the wind.
What are 4 factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis?
Maybe a blockout of sunlight or not enough access to water and the temperature may be too low to slow photosynthesis down
What percent of sunlight is red light approx 650 nm?
To be more clear, what is the percentage of the intensity of red light compared to the total intensity of sunlight at the earth's surface?
What is the temperature in the sunlight zone?
Warmer that the temperature in areas not bathed in sunlight.
Why does the ocean temperature water vary?
Oceans And Seas absorbs temperature during in the day time while in the night time releases temperature to surroundings so temperature variation is less but on the land surface temterature variation is more day time and night time
Does higher temperature mean more sunlight?
although the intensity and amount of sunlight will affect the temperature yet apart from that other factors including the weather conditions, physical features, vegetation, atmospheric contents such as CO2 and other green house gases also play a vital role in affecting the temperature conditions. The type of geological strata will also be a contribting factor for high/low temperature conditions.
