When in the open atmosphere where it is cloudy air is generally sinking and cooling?
rising and cooling
Does convection involves cool gas rising toward the solar surface and hot gas sinking into the interior?
yes it does.
What is the relation between rising and sinking material in the earth's interior and subduction and rifting?
Subduction and rifting are the sinking and rising, respectively, of land masses at plate boudaries. These slow motions are caused by the convective motion of the underlying material driving the crust material above because it just floats on the lower layers.
Why are temperatures in lower atmosphere rising?
Because all the warm air is rising and traveling to the colder spots in the northern hemisphere.
Why does a helium-filled balloon rise to a certain altitude in the atmosphere and float there instead of rising further?
the reason is that as the balloon gradually goes up the density of air in the upper atmosphere decreases
When in the open atmosphere where it is cloudy air is generally sinking and cooling?
rising and cooling
When it is cloudy is air sinking or rising?

What causes currents in the ocean and atmosphere?
Warm air rising and cold air sinking in combination with the rotation of the Earth cause the various currents in the atmosphere.
What is the name for vertically rising or sinking air?
Rising and sinking air is called up draft and down draft, respectively.
The belts and zones of Jupiter are?
They are alternating bands in the atmosphere, carrying different clouds at different latitudes. There are strong winds at the boundaries of the belts and zones. It is thought that in the belts and zones atmospheric gases fall and rise, to and from deeper levels in the atmosphere.
What is the rising and sinking motion of a heated fluid forms a cyclic pattern called?
The rising and sinking motion is called convection current.
Are winds formed by the rising of warm air and sinking of cool air?
rising
What is sinking and rising in the matter of plates?

Is Singapore sinking?
No, the sea level is rising
What is the relation between rising and sinking material in the earths interior and subduction and rifting?
Rising materials causes rifting; sinking material causes subduction.
