| what is weather | weather is the day to day condition of the atmosphere at a particular place |
| what is climate | climate is the average weather experienced in a place over many years |
| what is atmospheric preasure | Atmospheric pressure is the weight of the air pressing down on the earths surface. |
| what is humidity | The amount of moisture in the air |
| what does weather include | weather includes the daily changes in temperature, precipitation, wind, sunshine, humidity and atmospheric preassure |
| what is precipitation | Precipitation is any moisture reaching the surface of the earth , such as rain, hail, snow and sleet |
| how do you tell the difference between high pressure and low preasure | high pressure are areas settled and calm weather low preasure is when there is unsettled weather eg storms |
| What factors affect temperature and rainfall | factors affect temperature and rainfall: 1.Latitude 2.seasonal differences 3.aspect 4.altitude |
| how does the earths tilt affect temperature | because the earths tilt is on an angle of 23.5 degrees and as it goes around its axis it faces different directions to the sun making it winter for us but summer somewhere else |
| how do ocean currents influence tempurture | oceans absorb heat during the day and release it slowly during the night.This helps keep coastal areas much warmer than inland areas |
| what is latitude | The angular distance of a place north or south of the earth's equator, or of the equator of a celestial object, usually expressed in degrees. |
| what is altitude | height above sea level [elevation] |
| list the forms of precipitation | |
| what is frontal rain fall | it is when a cold and a warm air mass meets |
| how do prevailing winds effect temperature and rainfall | The temperature of the prevailing wind is effected by the area it blows from. when they blow over warm bodies of water they often bring rain |
| how does the distance from the sea effect temperature and rainfall | the temperature of the prevailing winds is effected by the area it blows from.When they blow over warm bodies of water they often bring rain. |
| how do mountain barriers effect temperature and rainfall | By acting as barriers to the movement of air |
| How does altitude effect tempurture | the higher a place the cooler it will be |
| what are prevailing winds | it is the direction in which the wind blows often |
| what is an aspect | it is the direction at which a feature faces |
| what are the 3 ways in which rain are formed | 1.polar 2.temperate 3.equatorial |
| what is coalescence | is the merging of the smallest cloud droplets to create larger droplets of water |
| what is the rain shadow effect | it is when the air flows over the mountain |
| what is the orographic rainfall | the Orographic rainfall is rain that is produced from the lifting of moist air over a mountain. The moist air rises and cools, producing orographic clouds, which are the source of the rain. |
| what are the 3 broad zones of climatic difference across the world | 1.polar zone 2.temperate zone 3.equatorial zone |
| what is the polar zone | its the zone of low temperature |
| what is the temperate zone | it is the zone of moderate temperature |
| what is the equatorial zone | it is the zone of high tempurture |
| what does leeward mean | leeward means sheltered |
| what is the convectional rainfall | it is when the energy of the sun heats the earth surface and causes water to evaporate [from liquid to gas] |
| What is condensation | the conversion of a gas to a liquid.or the dew point |
