Question
Match the term with the correct description.
Weather
Long-term patterns of temperature and precipitation
Gases in the atmosphere, especially carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxides, methane, and other substances that retain heat
Seasonal reversal of wind patterns caused by differential heating and cooling rates of oceans and continents
This curving pattern results from the fact that the earth rotates in an eastward direction as winds move above it
A natural phenomena where the atmosphere transmits sunlight while trapping heat
Boundary that limits mixing between the troposphere and upper zones as air ceases to rise
Short-lived, local patterns; temperature and precipitation due to circulation of the troposphere
Boundary formed when cooler air pushes away warmer air
Boundary formed when warm air slides over cooler air
Has almost no water vapor, but 1000 times more ozone than the troposphere
Climate
Stratosphere
Tropopause
Greenhouse Effect
Greenhouse gases
Coriolis effect
Monsoon
