Is warm air above or below cool air?

Warm air is typically found above cool air due to the process of convection, where warm air rises and cool air sinks. This is why the upper atmosphere is warmer than the lower atmosphere in most cases.


Where in the atmosphere do hot air balloons float?

Hot air balloons float because hot air displaces cool air in the atmosphere


What is an upweling?

It is when cool air sinks into the ground and hot air rises up into the atmosphere.


Why does air cool when it rises through the atmosphere what is this type of cooling known as?

Air cools becuase when its rising through the atmosphere altitude decreases temperature, and when air rises its temperature drops at the dry abiatic rate. This type of cooling is known as adiabatic.


Does the words you speak reaches atmosphere?

The air we live in is simply the lowest later of the atmosphere, and air is required for your voice to work, so yes, your words must reach the atmosphere to be considered speech at all.

Does Air high in the atmosphere that pluges downard tends to cool?

How is heat from warm ocean water released into the atmosphere?

particles of water vapor collect dust around the air causing it to rise higher until it reaches the atmosphere


Why does air cool when it rises though the atmosphere?

As air rises it decompresses, as pressure decreases with increasing altitude. All gasses cool when decompressed. This process is called adiabatic cooling.


What is the temp of a tornado?

Cold. That's all I know. Some of the air from higher in the atmosphere reaches down to earth in the funnel.


What name is given to the upward and downward movement of air in the atmosphere?

The name given to the upward and downward movement of air in the atmosphere is convection. This movement is driven by temperature and pressure differences, with warm air rising and cool air sinking.
