How do upper-level cyclones and anticyclones affect surface level winds?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Tierra Gardner How do cyclones and anticyclones affect the weather? Areas of high pressure are called anticyclones, whilst low pressure areas are known as cyclones or depressions. Each brings with it different weather patterns. Anticyclones typically result in stable, fine weather, with clear skies whilst depressions are associated with cloudier, wetter, windier conditions.
Can air be slowed down by Fricton?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Tierra Gardner Does friction work on air? How Does Friction Work? When an object moves through air, the air closest to the object’s surface is dragged along with it, pulling or rubbing at the air that it passes. This rubbing exerts a force on the object opposite to the direction of motion—friction drag.
Why is northern Australia unsuitable for agriculture?
Weather & ForecastsThe Northern Territory: Why Farming Up North is Such a Gamble Northern Australia. Just the name conjures up images of vast, untouched landscapes. And with the world clamoring for more food, it’s no wonder people are eyeing it as the next big agricultural frontier. After all, it’s close to Asia, and Australia has a rock-solid
Difference between climatology and meteorology only
Earth ScienceAsked by: Michelle Carter Differences Between Climatology and Meteorology Climatology deals with long term atmospheric behavior over a significant period time whereas meteorology deals with atmospheric phenomena at any time and over short time intervals lasting no more than a few days. What is the difference between meteorology and climatology? Meteorology focuses on short-term weather
Regarding forest fire season and using robotic devices for proactive efforts before any fires
Earth ScienceAsked by: Frank Dahlkemper What technology is used to prevent wildfires? While firefighting has largely remained unchanged, high-tech solutions are changing how wildfires are battled. Technologies, such as drones, robots, and satellites, are all being used to detect, impede, and douse fires. What data is important when fighting forest fires? Specialists consider air temperature, humidity,
How do we know the asteroids formed at the same time as earth?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Frank Dahlkemper The fact that the overwhelming majority of celestial objects within our solar system orbit in a like manner (same direction as the Sun’s rotation) is observational evidence that they formed at about the same time from the same processes. How do we know what asteroids are made of? While in orbit,
