Climates and Oceans- 1. With coastal climates‚ the locations are on the windward side‚ meaning the weather patterns move from the ocean to land‚ giving them mild summers and cool winters. This means that there isn’t a very large temperature range for coastal climates. Inland climates are more of the land heating and cooling‚ because they heat to high temperatures in the day and then cool a great amount at night. Also‚ the weather patterns are moving from land to water‚ creating warmer summers and

The storm was nearly 400 miles wide‚ with the highest recorded wind gust at 104 mph. Overall damages were estimated in the $1.0 billion dollar range‚ and three deaths were attributed to the Category 3 storm. Copyright © 2005 by The McGraw-Hill

Equilibrium is meant as the material that is on Earth’s surface that is stable because they have adapted over time in accordance with chemicals and conditions that exist within their environment. When rocks are forced out of equilibrium their forms alter and they are broken down into different particles. The new particles that are formed when exposed to the elements are then in equilibrium

begins to increase with altitude‚ and this trend continues in the thermosphere. Because the atmosphere in the thermosphere is so thin‚ a thermometer cannot be used to measure the temperature accurately and special instruments are needed. The Earth interior is divided into 4 layers. The properties of the Earth’s interior have been inferred primarily from earthquake waves. Distinct characteristics are found within each layer such as density‚ temperature‚ and pressure. OBJECTIVE: In this

Earth Science is an all-embracing term for the sciences related to the planet Earth. It is arguably a special case in planetary science‚ the Earth being the only known life-bearing planet. There are both reductionist and holistic approaches to Earth sciences. The formal discipline of Earth sciences may include the study of the atmosphere‚ hydrosphere‚ oceans and biosphere‚ as well as the solid earth. Typically‚ Earth scientists will use tools from physics‚ chemistry‚ biology‚ chronology and mathematics
