Strong updrafts and warm air sinking cause what?
it causes strong winds
Strong updrafts of warm air and sinking rain cooled air cause strong what?
Such conditions cause strong winds.
What are the large circular patterns air travels in?
trade winds
What are the major ground-level wind pattern?
There are six polar easterlies, doldrurms, trade winds, subtropical high zone, westerly winds and polar front.
How does wind affect humidity?
you take a tutti in a bucket thus forcing wind into a circular formation this means it will cause humidity when the sweetcorn in your tutti affects the winds particles causing humidity. :)
What is a circular pattern of updraft downdraft and winds called?
convection cell
What large circular pattern of air movement called?
i think these are winds
Strong updrafts and warm air sinking cause what?
it causes strong winds
Spinning of the earth causes wind to?
The spinning of the Earth is probably a very minor component in the generation of the winds, although the spinning does distribute the primary power source for the winds, which is the Sun. The Sun's light heats up areas of the Earth, causing updrafts, and since it can't all go up, there are downdrafts to compensate. The changing heat caused by sunlight causes turbulent air flow.
What are down drafts?
Downdrafts are damaging winds on or near the ground. They are called downbursts or microbursts if caused by a thunderstorm which they usually are
Why would updraft start to rotate?
When winds intensify, the force released can cause the updrafts to rotate
What causes global winds and currents to curve in a circular pattern?
The curved paths of global winds and surface currents are caused by warm air near the equator.
What does the size of a hailstone depend on?
It depends on how strong the updrafts in a thunderstorm are. The stronger these updrafts (winds), the larger the hailstone it can support. As long as the hail remains supported in the cloud, it will continue to accrete ice and grow larger.
What shape do the winds of a tornado spin?
The winds in a tornado spiral inwards and upwards. As the winds approach the center they enter into a more circular pattern. The circulation becomes somewhat wider further up as more air enters the vortex.
Strong updrafts of warm air and sinking rain cooled air cause strong what?
Such conditions cause strong winds.
What are large circular movements of air called?
i think these are winds
What are the large circular patterns air travels in?
trade winds
