What is desert air like?
Air in the desert is little different from air elsewhere. In the desert the air contains little water vapor and, in some cases, may be quite hot.
Why spectacles sometimes mist over?
When the lenses are cooler than the surrounding air, the water vapor in the air may condense on the lenses, just as the water vapor in your breath condenses into steam when you exhale in very cold air.
Why is it usually cloudier in the mountains than desert?
There are a lot of different factors involved that vary from location to location, but one of the main reasons is that when air gets colder, it is not able to hold as much water vapor, so the water condenses into clouds. Temperatures are cooler at higher elevations, so when air moves from a low elevation (like a desert) to a high elevation (like a mountain) it is more likely to form clouds.
What is a trick of light from the desert heat that appears like water?
The illusion is a form of mirage. Light from the sun is reflected off of the very hot air just above the surface of the land and it appears to be reflecting off of water.
What non living things are found in the Australian desert?
Abiotic factors would include soil, sand, gravel, rocks, water, air and sunlight.
Where is the amount of water vapor in the air likely to be highest above desert or tropical rain forest?
above the desert
What is the amount of water vapor in the air likely to be highest above a desert or a tropical rain forest?
Of course, water vapor will be higher, much higher, above a rain forest than a desert.
Where is the amount of water vapor in the air likely to be the highest-above a desert or a tropical forest?
in a tropical rainforest
The addition of water vapor as the air passes?
Water in a container consists of liquid in the container and water vapor above the container. As the air passes, it carries off the water vapor above the water and the water in the container replenishes it. Moving air blows water vapor away much faster than still air. As a result, a plate with water in it will dry faster if air is blowing on it than a plate will if no air is blowing on it.
What is desert air like?
Air in the desert is little different from air elsewhere. In the desert the air contains little water vapor and, in some cases, may be quite hot.
Does the water vapor content of the air over a tropical desert exceed that of the air over the polar ice caps?
No, the water vapor content of the air over a tropical desert is typically lower than that over the polar ice caps. The polar regions are generally colder and have lower temperatures, causing the air to hold less water vapor compared to the warm tropical desert regions.
Does the air above the sea contain a lot of water vapor or only a little?
The air above the sea typically contains a lot of water vapor due to evaporation from the water surface. The amount of water vapor in the air can vary depending on factors such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed.
Where is the amount of water vapor in the air likely to be highest above a desert or tropical rain forest?
The tropical rain forest.
Does the air above the sea or the desert contain more water?
The air above the sea is more humid.
Air in a desert contains the most vapors at what temperature?
The warmer the temperature, the more water vapor the air can hold.
Why does the desert have so much sun?
The air is very dry in the desert. Because the air is so dry, more of the sunshine reaches the surface. In other places where there is more water vapor in the air, the water vapor filters out more of the sunshine before it reaches the earth's surface.
Where is the amount of water vapor in the air likely to be highestabove a desert or a tropical rain forest?
rainforest
