Across
- 3. the type of weather associated with high pressure systems
- 4. the type of pressure associated with warm, rising air
- 6. a local wind moving from sea to land
- 7. long-term weather patterns that occur in a region
- 10. relative temperature of air that sinks
- 11. water vapor becomes a liquid; makes up our clouds
- 12. short-term atmospheric conditions; certain place and time
- 14. the type of pressure associated with cold, sinking air
- 15. movement of air caused by uneven heating of Earth's surface
- 16. the amount of water vapor in the air
Down
- 1. a local wind moving from land to sea
- 2. heat transfer by fluid motion--warmer, less dense rises and cooler, more dense sinks
- 5. liquid becomes a gas; happens constantly over the oceans
- 8. the temperature at which water vapor in the air will condense
- 9. relative temperature of air that rises
- 13. the type of weather associated with low pressure systems
