What are some of the feature is associated with a temperature inversion?
A stable layer of air, increase in temp. with height an atmospheric layer....
What does a decrease in the height of the mercury column usually indicate on a barometer?
low pressure system and stormy weather
Why does the height of the liquid column in a barometer changes as atmospheric pressure changes?
Pressure tendancies measure short term weather. The mercury in a barometer will rise with atmospheric pressure denoting fairer weather and a fall in barometric pressure warns of inclement weather.
How do you get the percentage of atmosphere above a height given in km and then how do you get the pressure for the height in mb?
Formulas for atmospheric pressure variation with altitude. Scroll down to related links and look at "Atmospheric pressure - Wikipedia".
In which two layers of the atmosphere does temperature increase as altitude increase?
Metophere Hydrophere
Why temperature decreases with the increase of height?
atmospheric
In which layers of the atmosphere does the temperature increase with increasing height?
The stratosphere is where the temperature increases with height. This is due to absorption of UV radiation by atmospheric ozone.
What are some of the feature is associated with a temperature inversion?
A stable layer of air, increase in temp. with height an atmospheric layer....
Why does atmospheric pressure increase with height?
The opposite is true. Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude.
Why does temperature vary with height?
As temperature increase pressure will increase
What is double inversion?
increase in temp. with height an atmospheric layer, also a A stable layer of air.
What is an atmospheric disturbance?
An atmospheric wave is a periodic disturbance in the fields of atmospheric variables like surface pressure or geopotential height, temperature, orwind velocity) which may either propagate
How do atmospheric layers differ?
The five layers of the atmosphere have different atmospheric temperature that occurs with increasing altitude. The layers also thin out with height from the surface.
What happens to the temperature as the height of the atmosphere increase?
It become colder
Why does temperature increase with height through the stratosphere?
Ozone absorbs more ultraviolet radiation than does air in the troposphere. As a result, the stratosphere is heated, and air gradually increases in temperature to the top of the layer, called the startopause.
Is a line which represent continuous value on maps?
Isobar for atmospheric pressure, isotherm for temperature, or contour for height above (below) sea level.
If a glass of water is raised to a height of 1 meter will its temperature increase decrease or stay the same?
It depends where you are. Most of the time, the increase in temperature will be negligible. However, if you are in a very humid place, heat rises so the temperature might increase slightly.
