Across
  1. 3. atmospheric layer directly above the troposphere
  2. 5. steady winds that flow from west to east between latitudes 30 deg North & 60 deg North
  3. 6. when sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides combine w/ moisture in the atmosphere and form precipitation that has a pH lower than that of normal rainwater
  4. 12. occurs in the troposphere when temperature increases as altitude increases
  5. 15. smog air pollution that forms from the interaction between chemicals in the air and sunlight
  6. 17. wind that blows from the sea to the land due to local temperature and pressure differences
  7. 18. wind that blows from the land to the sea due to local temperature and pressure differences
  8. 19. area of the stratosphere w/ a high concentration of ozone
Down
  1. 1. water in its gaseous form
  2. 2. atmospheric layer closest to Earth's surface
  3. 4. thin layer of gases surrounding Earth
  4. 5. movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure
  5. 7. region w/in the mesosphere and thermosphere that contains ions
  6. 8. transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves
  7. 9. near the top of the troposphere is a narrow band of high winds
  8. 10. easterlies cold winds that blow from the east to the west near the North pole and the South Pole
  9. 11. contamination of air by harmful substances including gases and smoke
  10. 13. the transfer of thermal energy by collisions between particles of matter
  11. 14. steady winds that flow from east to west between 30 deg North latitude & 30 deg South latitude
  12. 16. transfer of thermal energy by the movement of particles w/in matter
