Extreme heat in the atmosphere is primarily caused by a combination of factors, including increased greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and urbanization, which trap heat. Natural phenomena like El Niño can also contribute by altering weather patterns. Additionally, changes in land use and climate variability can amplify temperature extremes. Collectively, these elements disrupt the balance of the Earth's climate system, leading to more frequent and intense heat events.
What else can I help you with?
What causes water to evaporate into the atmosphere?
Heat energy.
What is the relationship between the moon surface gravity lack of atmosphere and temperature range?
The Moon's gravity causes the lack of atmosphere (any possible atmosphere evaporates out into space in a fairly short time); and the lack of atmosphere causes the extreme temperatures.
Why does the shuttle look like it is burning up as it moves through the atmosphere?
The glowing effect seen during re-entry is caused by the extreme heat generated by the friction between the shuttle and the Earth's atmosphere. This heat is a result of the shuttle's high speed and the compression of air in front of it. As the shuttle travels through the atmosphere, the intense heat causes its surface to glow and appear to be "burning up."
What causes a spaceship to get red-hot when reentering earth's atmosphere?
The heat generated by friction due to 'rubbing' against the air at re-entry speed. This is the same effect that causes a stone or a grain of sand to burn when it enters the atmosphere and become visible as a 'shooting star'.
What does the heat shield do on the command module?
As the module reenters earth's atmosphere the leading edge where the heat sheid is located gets very hot, red hot in fact. The ehat shield keeps the heat from penetrating the module to protect the electronic gear and passengers from the extreme heat. If the heat shield were not used the module would literally melt on reentry.
What causes the extreme temperatures on Venus?
The gases around the planet traps the suns heat and energy in the atmosphere
Which of these causes extreme temperature changes on the moon?
lack of atmosphere
What causes water to evaporate into the atmosphere?
Heat energy.
What traps the heat in the atmosphere of a planet that causes it to heat up?
The Greenhouse effect...
Why does the moon have extream heat and extream cold?
the moon has extreme heat and extreme cold because the moon has no atmosphere. unlike earth the moon and other planets do not have living life there fore do not have any atmospheric signs or any atmosphere.
Why a piece of material floating in space burns up when it gets pulled in by earth's gravity?
As the material enters Earth's atmosphere, it compresses the air in front of it, creating intense frictional heating due to the high speed. This causes the material to heat up very rapidly and eventually burn up. The heat generated by the friction between the material and the atmosphere is what causes it to burn.
What is the relationship between the moon surface gravity lack of atmosphere and temperature range?
The Moon's gravity causes the lack of atmosphere (any possible atmosphere evaporates out into space in a fairly short time); and the lack of atmosphere causes the extreme temperatures.
What is the relationship between the moon and surface gravity lack of atmosphere and temperature range?
The Moon's gravity causes the lack of atmosphere (any possible atmosphere evaporates out into space in a fairly short time); and the lack of atmosphere causes the extreme temperatures.
What heat sources causes burns?
All heat sources. Plus extreme cold sources cause burns.
Why is Venus' atmosphere so hot?
Venus' atmosphere is hot because of its thick layer of carbon dioxide, which traps heat from the sun through a greenhouse effect. This causes the planet's surface temperature to rise to extreme levels, making it the hottest planet in our solar system.
Does temperature affect brain usage?
Yes. Example: extreme heat causes mirages.
Why does the moon have extreme heat and extreme cold?
it has no atmosphere to distribute heat and no water to absorb and release heat. he earth's relatively consistent temperatures are caused by the fact that 70% of its surface is water, which absorbs large quantities of solar energy and releases it slowly back into the atmosphere as heat, while the atmosphere retains and distributes that heat. on the moon, rocks on the sun side absorb heat, becoming very hot, but as soon as they rotate into shadow they quickly radiate that heat into space and become very cold.
