Weather Patterns
Across
- 4. the transfer of thermal energy by collisions between particles of matter
- 5. the transfer o thermal energy by electromagnetic waves
- 6. steady winds that flow from east to west between 30 N latitude and 30 S latitude
- 7. the atmospheric conditions, along with short-term changes, of a certain place at a certain time
- 9. a boundary between tw air masses
- 10. the vertical movement of water caused by differences in density
- 11. the vertical movement of water toward the ocean's surface
- 12. the long-term average weather conditions that occur in a particular region
- 16. cold winds that blow from the east to the west near the North Pole and South Pole
- 18. an area of low rainfall on the downwind slope of a mountain
Down
- 1. the circulation of particles within a material caused by differences in thermal energy and density
- 2. steady winds that flow from west to east between latitude of 30 N and 60 N and 30 S and 60 S
- 3. the movement of wind and water to the right or left that is caused by Earth's rotation
- 8. a large area of air that has uniform temperature, humidity and pressure
- 13. the measure of the reflectivity of a surface
- 14. the distance in degrees north or south of the equator
- 15. the movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure
- 17. a wind-driven current that carries ocean water horizontally across the ocean's surface
