  1. 3. The temperature at which air with a given amount of water vapor will reach saturation
  2. 5. An instrument that measures air pressure in the atmosphere
  3. 6. The amount of water vapor in the air
  4. 8. The influence of Earth's rotation on objects that move over Earth
  5. 11. The comparison of the amount of water vapor inteh air with the maximum amount of wate vapor that can be present in the air at that temperature
  6. 13. Imaginary line around center of Earth (0 degrees latitude), divides Earth into 2 halves
  7. 14. "Middle layer", extends from 50-90 kilometers from the Earth, very cold
  8. 15. Wind blows from the land out to the water, occurs at night
  9. 16. A process by which a substance changes from its liquid state to its gas state by random particle movement
  10. 20. Winds directly above and below the equator, from 0-30 degrees latitude
  11. 22. "Outer layer", extends to 400+ kilometers above Earth's surface, temperatures increases with altitude
Down
  1. 1. "Turning layer", located 0-10 kilometers from Earth's surface, gets colder as you go up

  4. 7. Found at both poles, from 65 latitude and above
  5. 9. The transfer of energy from place to place by the motion of gas or liquid
  6. 10. Found between the Trade Winds and the Prevailing Westerlies, area of poor winds
  7. 12. The force of air molecules pushing on an area
  8. 17. A layer in the stratosphere that contains a concentration of ozone sufficient to block most ultraviolet radiation from the sun
  9. 18. "Charges particles"disrupt AM radio signals, especially at night
  10. 19. The horizontal movement of air caused by differences in air pressure
  11. 21. Energy that travels across distances in the form of certain types of waves
