Sea smoke, also known as steam fog, is produced when cool air passes over warmer water. This can often result in hoar frost or freezing fog.

Which is a calm area on Earths surface where warm air rises?
trade winds
As the earth is heated by the sun bubbles of rise blank blank upward from the warm surface?
hot air
What best explains why thunderstorms usually form on warm days?
The warm air over the Earth's surface rises and pushes the clouds higher.
How is a hurricane produced?
hurricanes form ove r really warm ocen water of 80 degrees or warmer. the atmosphere must cool off very quickly the higher you go. also the wind must be blowing the same direction and the same speed to force air upward from the ocean to the surface. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tropical cyclones (hurricanes) all form the same way. Tropical cyclones are like giant engines that use warm, moist air as fuel. That is why they form only over warm ocean waters near the equator. The warm, moist air over the ocean rises upward from near the surface. Because this air moves up and away from the surface, there is less air left near the surface. Another way to say the same thing is that the warm air rises, causing an area of lower air pressure below. Air from surrounding areas with higher air pressure pushes in to the low pressure area. Then that "new" air becomes warm and moist and rises, too. As the warm air continues to rise, the surrounding air swirls in to take its place. As the warmed, moist air rises and cools off, the water in the air forms clouds. The whole system of clouds and wind spins and grows, fed by the ocean's heat and water evaporating from the surface.
At the Earth's surface warm air expands and rises leaving behind what is known as an area of?
low pressure
What causes earth surface to get warm?
Sunlight. The warmth rises into the atmosphere where some is trapped by greenhouse gases. These warm gases then warm the earth's surface again.
Which of the following is calm area on earths surface where warm air rises?
The Horse Latitudes are the calm areas on Earth's surface where warm air rises at the equator. The warm air also divides and flows both north and south.
Is a calm area on Earth's surface where warm air rises?
trade winds
Which is a calm area on Earths surface where warm air rises?
trade winds
What type of precipitation occurs when warm air rises from a hot surface?
Convection Precipitation.

Magma from deep inside earth rises toward the surface because?
Because magma is less dense than surrounding solid rock, so it is forced upward toward the surface.
At the Earth's surface warm air expands and rises leaving behind what is known as an area of?
low pressure
At the Earth's surface warm air expands and rises leaving behind what is known as an area of what?

How does uneven heating of earths surface results in convection currents?
Where the air is over a parts of the Earth's Surface that is warm, the air warms. Warm air rises and as it rises it is replaced by cooler air that is sucked in from parts of the Earth's surface which are comparatively cooler. This movement causes a cyclic circulation of the air called win and weather.
