What else can I help you with?
How does a hurricane generate its power?
I think it is by picking up water in the ocean and winds
Does all moving water eventually empty into a lake or an ocean?
Yes Everything Winds Up In The Ocean Sooner Or Later
Do winds blowing from the sea contain more moisture that winds blowing from the land?
Yes, a wind picks up water vapour as it passes over an ocean.
What occurs when winds blowing across the ocean's surface push water away from an area causing subsurface water to come up from beneath the surface to replace the diverging surface water?
nothing
How are monsoons and local related?
Local winds are when land heats up faster than water. Monsoon winds are a type of local winds. Monsoon winds is a seasonal wind, part of the year, wind blows from land to sea then it shifts. This shift results in large amounts of rain because winds are from the ocean.
Does a hurricane rain ocean water or regular water?
A hurricane typically produces heavy rain using regular water from the atmosphere, not ocean water. The intense winds of a hurricane can pick up moisture from the ocean surface and carry it over land, where it falls as precipitation.

How do ocean surfaces cause milder climate?
Ocean currents can carry warm water. As they are traveling, the warm water they are carrying warms up the air near them. The warmed air may then also warm the land around it, making the temperature of the land near the ocean currents milder.
How do ocean surface currents cause milder climates?
Ocean currents can carry warm water. As they are traveling, the warm water they are carrying warms up the air near them. The warmed air may then also warm the land around it, making the temperature of the land near the ocean currents milder.
Are global winds and ocean currents related?
The rotation of the Earth, coupled with the difference in temperature between the air and water, creates currents. Warm air and sea tend to flow towards the poles where the cooled air then flows back towards the equator. Land obstructions cause the currents to alter their course. The air is faster to warm up and cool down than the oceans, with surface water being affected more quickly than the deeper water.
Do winds blowing from the sea contain more moisture than winds blowing from lands?
Yes, generally winds blowing from the sea tend to contain more moisture than winds blowing from land because they pick up moisture as they travel over the ocean. This is why coastal areas often experience more humidity and precipitation compared to inland regions.
How does moving water erodes and deposits sediment to create landforms such as valleys and deltas?
Moving water erodes sediment by picking it up and carrying it downstream, gradually wearing away the land. This erosion can create valleys by cutting into the earth over time. As the water slows down, it deposits the sediment it was carrying, building up deltas where the river meets a body of water such as an ocean.
