Across
- 3. the region of the earth atmosphere above the stratosphere and below the thermosphere
- 5. a belt of strong upper- level winds lying above regions of subtropical high pressure
- 6. a belt of powerful upper-level winds that sits atop the polar front
- 9. a states or period of inactivity stagnation or depression
- 11. the lowest region of the atmosphere extending from the earth surface (3.7- 6.2) miles
- 12. an imaginary line drawn around the earth equally distant from both poles dividing the earth into northern and southern hemisphere and constituting
- 13. either of the two locations ( North Pole or South Pole) on the surface of the earth ( or of a celestial obiect)
- 16. a large-scale atmosphere convection cell in which air rises at the equator and sinks at medium latitude
- 20. the force exerted on a surface by the air above it as gravity pulls it to earth
