Term1/13

Is the saying the higher the clouds the better the weather true

Definition1/13

High clouds indicate the dry air and high pressure of fair weather.

so it is true

Term1/13

How do waves change as they approach the shore

Definition1/13

As waves approach the shore, interaction with the sea floor slows the waves down and the crests of the waves bunch up. They increase in height as the energy in each wave compresses into a shorter horizontal distance, but the period of the wave does not change. Eventually, the waves break.

Term1/13

What is the term for the percentage of light reflected by something

Definition1/13

albedo

Term1/13

Which increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere acting as a carbon source

Definition1/13

Respiration :)

Term1/13

What is true about black and white shirts in the summer

Definition1/13

Black shirts absorb more and reflect less radiation.

Term1/13

Why does the thermosphere have the highest temperature of all atmosphere layers

Definition1/13

IT is closest to the sun

Term1/13

A patch of ground in direct sunlight will have what a patch of ground shaded by clouds

Definition1/13

cow penis

Term1/13

What causes the global air convection current between the equator and the polls

Definition1/13

The difference in temperatures between the Equator and the north and south poles, plus the rotation of the earth, causes the air currents.

Term1/13

For the same insolation order these regions from highest absorption to lowest.

Definition1/13

as s hold

Term1/13

What prevents wind from blowing directly from the north pole to South

Definition1/13

The Coriolis

Term1/13

Hpow do the conditions in the united states change when the jet stream moves north

Definition1/13

It gets warmer-Apex

Term1/13

Which statement is true of jet streams

Definition1/13

The polar jet stream lies between the polar easterlies and trade winds

Term1/13

which is not part of the recipe for a thunderstorm to form

Definition1/13

A cold front advancing
