What is the weather near the equator warm or cool and why?
The weather near the equator is typically warm because the area receives direct sunlight year-round, leading to consistent high temperatures. This is due to the Earth's curvature causing the sun's rays to strike the equator more directly, creating a warmer climate.
The atmosphere balances the unequal heating of earth's surface by moving?
Warm air toward high latitudes and cool air toward the equator
How do warm and cool ocean currents form?
Warm ocean currents form when ocean water near the equator gets heated and flows towards the poles. Cool ocean currents form when cold polar water sinks and flows towards the equator. These currents are driven by differences in water temperature, salinity, and wind patterns.
Why does it tends to be cool at the earths pole?
Because the earth rotates on its slanted axis, the points at the ends of the axis (the poles) are the parts that least often face the sun directly and therefore receive the least amount of sunlight year-round.
Why are countries near equator hot during day and cold during night?
It could depend on the winds and the moisture in the air. Also to take into account, the equator is the closest latitude to the sun in the daytime in any equinox and almost as close during a solstice, but not so close at night. Every moment the sun is heating the equator at longitude somewhere, on the opposite longitude is the equator clear on the other side of the globe away from the sun. Much as the sun heats the equator in the day, the land and air are more dry and less clouds form. Deserts are thus very common around the equator. With less cloud cover, the heat escapes the atmosphere more easily. Those are the likely contributing factors in the temperature highs and lows at the equator. The equator's two coldest hours are probably around 2:00 to 4:00 AM. I'm quite sure it is owed to the atmosphere (winds and air moisture) that heat lingers, preventing the equator from freezing up at those hours. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn probably do not have nights as cold as the equator, theoretically. But also, bear in mind that rainforests have a better equilibrium and that deserts generally have more extreme day heat and colder nights too. The tropic pattern can be subverted by its deserts, and the equator's pattern can be subverted by its rainforests.
Why is it unusual that there are glaciers on Mt Kenya?
It is unusual for a tropical place like Mt. Kenya to have glaciers due to its proximity to the equator, where temperatures are warmer. The glaciers persist on Mt. Kenya due to its high altitude, which keeps temperatures cool enough to support ice formation.
Why it is not guaranteed to be hot near the equator?
It is not guaranteed to be hot because of the topography. If there is a mountain on the equator, it will be cool. The two factors of a climate are how close they are to the equator, and the altitude of the area.
Does mental work consume calories?
No, not even close. Laughing does, though, isn't that cool?!
Why is Quito the capital of Ecuador cool even though its near the equator?
Because it is located at 2850 m. height, and it's surrounded by icy mountains.
Is the weather warm or cool near the equator Why?
It is cooler because warm and cool makes cool
Is the weather warm or cool near the equator and why?
It is cooler because warm and cool makes cool
What places along the equator are cool?
mountains and highlands
Why do warm ocean currents cool as they flow along a coastline away from the equator?
Warm ocean currents cool as they flow along a coastline away from the equator because sand and minerals are transported by ocean currents away from the equator.
What happens to the Peru current as it reaches the equator?
It goes from a cool current to a warm current as it gets closer to the equator.
Is the weather war or cool near the equator?
Super hot!!!
How come even though Quito the capital of Ecuador is on the equator its climate is cool?
Because it is in the mountains. The elevation of the city is 2,800 metres (9,200 ft), which make it cooler in comparison to the lowlands that surround it.
Is there extreme weather in Kenya?
Kenya has a tropical climate. It's warm almost all year round. Temperatures range between 40 degrees Fahrenheit to 94 degrees, the hottest ever. The climate of Kenya is tropical, sunny most of the year. Kenya has a tropical climate all year round. Temperatures generally fall in the range of 25-95 degrees Fahrenheit. No winter climate. Kenya climate is warm all year round with plenty of sunshine most of the day and cool evenings. It's a tropical climate.The wheather is very warm in the winter like the fall here in America, and the summers are hot since it lies on the equator.
