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

Respiration :)

What does nitrogen fixation accomplish

It allows plants to use nitrogen to grow.

What causes a valley breeze

The sides of the valley heating more quickly than the air around it

What is the name for runaway plant growth because of excess nitrogen

Eutrophication

What is true about black and white shirts in the summer

Black shirts absorb more and reflect less radiation.

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

IT is closest to the sun

Earth has a what of about 30 percent reflecting much of the sun's radiation back into space

Albedo.

Does the Brazilian carnival happen during the night

The Brazilian carnival doesn't happen during the night, it happens during the Day time or the morning and it can some time happen during the night but occasinaly it happens during the morning and day time :)

What cool region underneath cloud cover will have a region with no cloud cover

A higher pressure than

What causes two distinct pressure zones between equator and the poles

Earths rotation

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

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

What is the difference of the causes between a sea breeze and a land breeze

The only difference - is the direction of flow. A sea breeze blows from the sea onto the land. A land breeze flows in the opposite direction.

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

What causes the global convection current between the equator and the poles.

Surface currents are caused by wind, and affected by the rotation of the Earth and the gravity of the moon (tides). When the oceans are deep, convection within the layers can also affect the flow of currents.

* While wind currents are greatly affected by uneven heating of the Earth's surface, there is no corresponding heating of the ocean bottom by the Sun. So currents do not form spontaneously at depth.
