That depends entirely on where you are, what season it is, what time of day it is, and whether the soil and water are in the sunlight or in the shade. Everywhere is going to have different temperatures.

Why do geologists measure soil temperatures?
Because soil temperatures indicate the heat transfer process occurring at the earth's surface.
How do the heating and cooling reates pf soil and water affect the climates of regions lacated near bodies of water?
how interfer the temperatures of land and water during the months of year
What processes change rocks into soil?
It is weathering. This could be erosion by water or wind, or it could be the effect of alternate expansion and contraction in extreme temperatures.
Does lower temperatures lead to slower soil formation?
yes
How is soil temperature important to plants?
Plants will not grow and seeds will not germinate if the soil temperature is too low. The biochemical reactions involved in growth and development are very slow when temperatures are low. Below 50 F (~10 C), most biological activity is essentially halts in most plants. High temperatures in soils is not good, either. However, soils are poor conductors of heat and good insulators. So if the sun heats the soil surface to temperatures uncomfortable for most plants, the soil just a few of inches below the surface are much cooler. The plant can cool itself by drawing up water from those cooler depths. In addition to the plant's needs for proper temperatures, soil organisms are inactive at low temperatures. Some of these organisms help the plant access nutrients, so when they are inactive, it will reflect on plant growth.
What happens to the temperatures of equal volumes of soil and water when they are placed in the sunshine for 30 minutes?
The soil and water heats up and makes uneven heating.
What are three things you might find in the Sahara?
Soil high temperatures/water( maybe).

How does climate help create soil?
glaciers break down rocks and then moves them to a new place
Temperatures of water?
temperatures of water
Why did maddie and dayton investigation with a model instead of measuring the temperatures of the soil on the beach and the water in the lake?
Light energy can be controlled in a model.
How are the initial and final temperatures of the melting range determined?
By melting and determinating the answers between the boiling and freezing of condensated water or other form of liquid.
When it rains in the desert does the initial rain absorb or runoff?
If it is a slow and gentle rain, it will be absorbed by the soil or sand. If it is a sudden downpour the soil will not be able to absorb the water fast enough and it will run off.
What are three abiotic features of an ecosystem?
Temperatures, winds, and precipitation are the three abiotic factors that determine the characteristics of a biome. The tundra has low temperatures and high winds.
What processes change rocks into soil?
It is weathering. This could be erosion by water or wind, or it could be the effect of alternate expansion and contraction in extreme temperatures.
What are 6 factors that influence where you settle?
you got to have a water supply. fertile soil. land that can be farmed. livable temperatures. need rain citywide wifi
