What are the three types of air?
there are 5 types of air masses... 1. Arctic Polar 2. Continental Polar 3. Maritime Polar 4. Continental Tropical 5. Maritime Tropical
Difference between cold and warm currents?
Warm currents are warm whereas cold currents are cold. Warm currents flow from the equatorial regions towards the polar regions whereas cold currents flow from the polar regions to the equatorial regions. By- Avyukt Sharma
From the same insulation these regions from highest absorption to lowest?
Convectional current cells Polar deserts Tropical rainforests Temperate deciduous forests Tundra regions
How is the jet streem related to convection?
The jet stream is a narrow band of strong winds in the upper atmosphere that is driven by the temperature difference between air masses. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluid (in this case, air). The jet stream is influenced by the temperature contrasts created by convection, particularly between the polar and tropical air masses.
What would happen if the polar ice caps melted and the resulting water spread?
If the polar ice caps melted, it would lead to a rise in sea levels. This would result in flooding of coastal areas, displacement of communities, loss of habitats for wildlife, and increased risk of extreme weather events.
How does wind patterns affect the movement of air masses in North America?
Four main types of air masses influence weather in North America: maritime tropical, continental tropical, maritime polar and continental polar.
Where do maritime tropical maritime polar continental tropical continental polar come from?
Maritime tropical (mT) air masses originate over warm ocean waters in tropical regions, bringing humid and warm conditions. Maritime polar (mP) air masses form over cold ocean waters in polar regions, resulting in cool and damp weather. Continental tropical (cT) air masses develop over hot, dry land areas, leading to warm and dry conditions. Continental polar (cP) air masses arise over cold land areas in polar regions, producing cold and dry air.
why are polar regions colder then tropical?
Tropical regions are cooler , polar regions are colder
How are polar and tropic regions?
polar regions are in areas surrounded by poles or frigid zones, climate in these areas are cooler as they receive far less intensity from solar radiation, tropical regions are closer to the equator of the earth and therefore the climate in these areas are warmer
What are four types of air masses that affected the US?
Four types of air masses that can affect the United States are continental polar (cP), maritime polar (mP), continental tropical (cT), and maritime tropical (mT). These air masses vary in temperature and moisture content, influencing the weather patterns when they move across the region.
What is the opposite of a tropical region polar or desert?
The opposite of a tropical region is a polar region.
Classify the four major types of air masses according to whether they are dry or humid?
Maritime polar and tropical, continental polar and tropical.
How is a tropical zone different from a polar zone?
Tropical zones are warmer and polar zones are colder.
What are the three climate zone?
The three climate zones on earth are polar, temperate, and tropical.tropical moist area's,mountians,and snowy areas.
What causes deep currents?
Thermal imbalances between the tropical oceans and the polar oceans. (From yahoo answers)
What are the 4 types of Air Mass?
maritime polar, maritime tropical, continental polar, and continental tropical
What are the main types of air masses?
Maritime polar, maritime tropical, continental polar, & continental tropical
