Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)
Water flows from a higher elevation to a lower elevation due to gravity. It seeks the lowest point possible as it moves downstream.
Lower in elevation.
Areas of higher elevation are colder compared to areas of lower elevation because the air pressure is lower at higher elevations, causing the air to expand and cool. Additionally, as you move higher in elevation, the atmosphere becomes thinner and contains less heat-absorbing gases, leading to lower temperatures.
Pressure decreases with increasing elevation, so pressure is higher at lower elevations and vice versa. This is because the density of the atmosphere decreases as you move further away from the Earth's surface.
it depends on your elevation at the time, higher for lower, lower for higher
Each index contour has an elevation associated with it. When you look at 2 contours, one will have a higher corresponding elevation. As you go from the lower elevation to the higher elevation, you know that the land is increasing in the direction toward the higher elevation. From the higher to the lower elevation, the land is decreasing (sloping downward, decreasing in elevation).
because its elevation is higher(mountains) so back in the day they called it upper Egypt cuz it was higher in altitude.
The Texas Rule of Thumb is: The further you travel Northwest, the higher the elevation and lower the precipitation, the further you travel Southeast, the lower the elevation, and higher the precipitation.
Gravity is what causes a river to flow from higher to lower elevation. A river travels at a faster speed the higher the elevation and will typically cause greater erosion.
Higher elevations are colder than lower elevations because the air becomes thinner as you go higher up, which reduces the amount of heat that can be retained. This leads to a decrease in temperature at higher elevations.
At higher altitude the temperature is lower.
Is the scenic byway upper or lower peninsula
