What kind of breeze is this & what time of day/night would it form?

• Land breeze - daytime
• Land breeze - nighttime
• Sea breeze - daytime
• Sea breeze - nighttime

Which statement correctly defines wind?

• Wind is the movement of air from areas of low pressure to areas of high pressure
• Wind is the movement of air to a colder area in the atmosphere.
• Wind is the movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
• Wind is the movement of air pushed around and bouncing off Earth's surface.

Where does the initial source of energy come from that creates winds?

• the moon
• the sun
• the Earth's surface
• the rotation of the Earth

Land and water absorb and release the sun’s heat in different ways. One result of this is a sea breeze. Which statement is true of sea breezes?

• They originate in the day and blow toward the land.
• They originate in the day and blow toward the water.
• They originate in the evening and blow toward the land.
• They originate in the evening and blow toward the water.

Which term is best described as the movement of air from land to sea?

• global winds
• sea breeze
• land breeze
• local winds

What causes global winds and convection in the atmosphere? 

• continental deflection
• the rotation of the Earth
• Moon's gravity
• unequal heating of the Earth by the sun

The Coriolis effect causes ___________.

• the Earth to rotate on its axis
• continental deflection
• global winds and surface currents to move in a curved path instead of a straight line
• global winds and deep ocean currents to move in a curved path instead of a straight line.

What impact does the Coriolis effect have upon global winds in the northern and southern hemispheres?

• Global winds blow counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere.
• Global winds blow clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere.
• Global winds flow clockwise in both the northern and southern hemispheres.
• The Coriolis effect has no impact upon global winds in the northern and southern hemispheres.

The curving of air to the right in the Northern hemisphere is caused by ___________ and is called the _________ effect.

• Earth's rotation...Coriolis
• Earth's revolution...Coriolis
• Earth's rotation...Doppler
• Earth's revolution...Doppler
