Chapter 2 Weather Factors Section 3 Winds. What causes wind? Wind: The horizontal movement of air from an area of high pressure to an area of lower pressure.

Atmospheric movements We learned that energy is transferred from the Sun to the Earth creating convection currents. But, what type of currents???

Convection Regions, Global Winds, Jet Streams. Atmospheric Convection Regions Since earth is unevenly heated, climate zones occur (different convection.

Weather Tools. Scientists who study weather are called Meteorologists. A meteorologist uses tools to measure the weather. Read on to find out more about.

Global Wind Patterns. What is Wind? Wind is the movement of air from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure. Warmer air expands, becoming.

Ch. 8 Test Review Mr. Maine

Chapter 8 Review Convection currents form when air temperatures are different.

Chapter 8 Review What happens as you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere? - Air pressure decreases.

Chapter 8 Review Winds generally blow from west to east over the United States due to a huge convection current over the North American continent and the rotation of Earth.

Chapter 8 Review What causes precipitation at fronts? - Rising warm air.

Chapter 8 Review A severe storm warning means that severe storms have already formed.

Chapter 8 Review A column of wind lifted up on one end by upward winds and pressed down on the other end by downward winds describes a tornado.

Chapter 8 Review Hurricanes get their energy from warm ocean waters.

Chapter 8 Review Which weather instrument is used to measure wind speed? - Anemometer

Chapter 8 Review What does the H on the weather map represent? - Area of high pressure.

Chapter 8 Review A forecaster determining the climate of an area would find the average yearly precipitation most helpful.

Chapter 8 Review How do the Gulf Stream and North Atlantic Drift currents affect weather in Europe? - They cause the temperature to be warmer than they would be otherwise.

Chapter 8 Review A scientist studying climates finds a fossil of a fish in the desert. What can the scientist learn from this fossil? - That the desert probably had a wet climate at one time.
