Why are warm currents warm and cold currents cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
Are warm or cold ocean currents stronger?
some are- like the gulf stream and rip currents. but others are not strong. it depends on the location and other variables.
Why are some currents cold and some warm?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
Why are some ocean currents warm and others are cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
What cold currents near coastlines might indicate sites of upwelling?
Cold currents near coastlines often indicate the presence of upwelling. This is because upwelling brings cold, nutrient-rich waters from the ocean depths to the surface, leading to colder surface currents. Some examples of cold currents near coastlines that are associated with upwelling include the California Current, the Benguela Current, and the Canary Current.
Are some deserts cold?
Yes, some deserts are cold. The Antarctic is bitterly cold the year round. The Patagonian Desert is quite cool all year while others, such as the Gobi or Great Basin will be very hot in the summer but very cold in the winter. A third group of cold deserts are the cool coastal deserts, such as the Atacama and the Namib, where cold coastal currents tend to moderate the climate and keep it cool
How do ocean currents affect air temperature in coastal areas?
Warm Ocean currents warms the air above it and some move from the tropic towards both poles ---------------------------------------------------------AND----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cold Ocean currents also affect weather patterns by bringing cold water from polar to the equator
Which are cold water currents northern hemisphere or southern hemisphere?
Cold water currents are found in both the northern and southern hemispheres. However, in the northern hemisphere, some well-known cold water currents include the California Current and the Canary Current. In the southern hemisphere, examples include the Benguela Current and the Peru Current.
Compare and contrast surface and density currents?
Density currents are slower than surface currents b/c surface currents are powered by the wind.
Why are there hot and cold deserts?
Generally, deserts located furthest from the tropics are cold deserts. The closer to the tropics, the warmer the desert. Some are considered cold because they are at a higher altitude and others considered as cool desert because they are on a coastline that has cold ocean currents just off shore
Why are some plants cold and others hot?
some have peploe on it and some dont
Is a desert hot or cold?
Some, such as the Sahara are hot in the day and cold at night. Others, such as the Antarctic, are simply cold.
