What else can I help you with?
Does the water cycle affect the ocean?
the ocean becomes saltier (evaporation) or less salty (precipitation/runoff)
Is more water evaporated from ocean than is returned to the ocean by precipitation?
On a long term an equilibrium exist.
Where does precipitation and storms occur?
water sea ocean lakes rivers
El Nino is a condition that brings increased precipitation to the eastern Pacific Ocean basin when?
El Niño occurs when ocean temperatures in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean become warmer than usual, leading to changes in atmospheric circulation patterns. This can result in increased precipitation in the eastern Pacific Ocean basin, including countries like Peru and parts of North America.
What air mass produces Seattle's heavy winter precipitation?
Seattle's heavy winter precipitation is primarily influenced by maritime polar air masses, which originate from the Pacific Ocean. These air masses are moist and cool, bringing significant rainfall, especially when they encounter the Cascade Range, causing orographic lifting. As the air rises over the mountains, it cools and condenses, leading to heavy precipitation in the region. Additionally, the influence of warm, moist air from the ocean contributes to the city's winter weather patterns.
What is precipitation of the ocean?
480cm a year depending on the location.
What is the precipitation in the ocean?
It is very difficult to measures the precipitation in the ocean. This is because the ocean is far too large.
How much precipitation occurs over the ocean in the water cycle?
Precipitation over the ocean in the water cycle accounts for about 45 of the total global precipitation.
Why does most precipitation fall into the ocean?
Most precipitation falls into the ocean because about 71% of the Earth's surface is covered by water. The water cycle drives the movement of water from the ocean to the atmosphere and back again through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation, resulting in a large amount of rainfall in the ocean.
What begins in the Pacific ocean and disrupts worldwide temperatures and precipitation?
precipitation
What ocean has the most precipitation?
yuibh
Where does most of earth precipitation fall?
Most of the Earth's precipitation falls in the ocean.
Which Ocean brings precipitation and moist air to Nigeria?
The Atlantic Ocean
Why doesn't the ocean dry up?
because the sickle of evaporation and precipitation help it not dry out. if we had no evaporation and precipitation sickles the ocean would dry out.
Why the ocean doesn't dry up?
because the sickle of evaporation and precipitation help it not dry out. if we had no evaporation and precipitation sickles the ocean would dry out.
What is the average precipitation in the ocean?
480cm a year
How does precipitation make it way back to the ocean?
no
