What else can I help you with?
Do warm currents flow toward the equator or away?
Warm currents generally flow toward the poles from the equator. This creates a transfer of warm water from the equator to higher latitudes, helping to moderate temperatures in these regions.
Wind patterns move warm air from the equator toward the?
poles and cold air from the poles toward the equator. This movement creates global wind patterns that help regulate temperature and climate around the world. The Coriolis effect deflects these winds to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, influencing their direction and strength.
How Air moving from the poles toward the equator turns west. The primary cause of this global deflection is?
The coreolis effect.
What is the cause of differences in air pressure?
Causes air to move from poles toward the equator
Which one is hotter the Equator or the Poles?
On our Earth, the Equator is comparatively warmer than either of the Poles.
Is the equator the warmest part of the ocean?
Ocean water generally gets warmer toward the equator and cooler toward the poles. However, the warmest water is not usually observed directly on the equator itself.
Do warm currents flow toward the equator or away?
Warm currents generally flow toward the poles from the equator. This creates a transfer of warm water from the equator to higher latitudes, helping to moderate temperatures in these regions.
Heat from the equator region moved toward the poles in what process of thermal energy transfer?
Convection
What type of currents carry cold dense water from the poles toward the equator?
Surface currents
The atmosphere balances the unequal heating of earth's surface by moving?
Warm air toward high latitudes and cool air toward the equator
What type of current typically carries cold dense water from the poles toward the equator?
sureface current
Wind patterns move warm air from the equator toward the?
poles and cold air from the poles toward the equator. This movement creates global wind patterns that help regulate temperature and climate around the world. The Coriolis effect deflects these winds to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, influencing their direction and strength.
How Air moving from the poles toward the equator turns west. The primary cause of this global deflection is?
The coreolis effect.
Does the equator pass right through the world?
No. The equator is an imaginary line drawn on the Earth's surface, all the way around, mid-way between the north and south poles.
Describe the temperature of the currents that flow away from the equator and explain why they are this way?
Heating by the sun near the equator makes the water there warm. In the polar regions, the water is cold. Cold water weighs more than warm and as a result, the warm waters of the equator drift toward the poles. The cold wear from the poles then flows toward the equator to replace the warm water that is leaving.
What is the cause of differences in air pressure?
Causes air to move from poles toward the equator
How global winds move warm air toward the?
Global winds move warm air toward the poles by the process of convection and the Coriolis effect. As warm air rises at the equator, it moves toward the poles due to the rotation of the Earth. This creates the global wind patterns that help distribute heat around the planet.
