Do oceans make the temperatures of nearby land more or less extreme?
Oceans make temperatures less extreme, was water tends to take a long time to heat up and cool down.
What effect do oceans have on the temperatures of nearby land areas?
Oceans cause the land masses near by to have more moderate temperatures. (Cooler summers and warmer winters.)
Do oceans make the temperature of nearby land more extreme?
Less extreem
Why do the oceans have a great impact on the weather over the continents?
The oceans are the source of most of the humidity in the atmosphere. They also have more mild temperatures than the land, and thus cool or warm coastal areas. Ocean currents effect the temperatures of nearby land masses (cool currents make the land cooler, warm currents make the land warmer).
Bodies of water have a moderating effect on land temperature?
Bodies of water have a moderating effect on land temperatures because in a moderate climate, such as Vancouver, Canada, the air from the oceans in the summertime is cooler and blows onto the adjacent land, whereas in the wintertime, the air masses from the warmer waters blows onto the nearby land and causes the land to warm up. Although, for a continental climate, such as Winnipeg, Canada, the exact oppostie happens. The cold air from the oceans blows onto the nearby land and thus makes everything cooler, and in the summer, the warmer air masses blows onto the land and makes everything warmer. This is also considered an extreme climate. Therefore, bodies of water regulate temperatures of the nearby land, and in cases of El Nino, have affects temperatures on a global scale.
How do you think the temperature of the ocean compares with the temperature of the land nearby?
Land heats more rapidly and to higher temperatures than water does, and cools quicker to lower temperatures than water. Ocean temperatures are more moderate than land temperatures.
How do nearby bodies of water help keep the climate of certain areas mild?
water temperatures change more slowly than land temperatures.
Do the warmest temperatures occur over continents or oceans?
The warmest temperatures typically occur over continents because land surfaces heat up faster and retain heat better than water. Oceans have a moderating effect on temperatures due to their high heat capacity, so they are slower to warm up and cool down compared to land areas.
How distance of the bodies of water affect the climate?
Oceans moderate the temperatures of nearby land because water heats and cools much more slowly than land. Therefore, winds coming from the ocean usually deter hot or cold extremes in coastal regions like California, Florida, and other states. However, places toward the center of a country or continent will often have these hot and cold extremes during summer and winter. This occurs because they are secluded from the oceans and do not get the moderated weather from the oceans.
A very dry wasteland where few plants can grow is called what?
Land with little rain and few plants is called a desert. If the temperatures are not extreme, the land could be a steppe.
How do oceans affect the weather and climate of nearby land?
Oceans play a crucial role in influencing the weather and climate of nearby land through processes such as heat exchange and moisture evaporation. Warm ocean currents can raise local temperatures and contribute to milder climates, while cold currents can lead to cooler, drier conditions. Additionally, the ocean's vast surface area allows for significant moisture release into the atmosphere, which can affect precipitation patterns and storm development. Overall, the interplay between oceanic conditions and atmospheric dynamics significantly shapes regional climates and weather events.
When do you think people be able to land on the sun and explore it?
never its 100 percent impossible to land on the sun and explore do to the extreme temperatures, gravitational pull, liquid surface, and violent storms. Even if we did create it a space ship that could float and survive extreme heat, it would either be sucked into the suns interior or be destroyed by the explosive solar flares that explode from the suns surface.
