Air current that brings the weather to North America and Canada

• polar easterlies
• prevailing westerlies
• trade winds
• doldrums

Coriolis effect

• caused by Earth's rotation
• caused by Earth's revolution
• caused by Earth's tilt
• caused by Earth's winds

Some Solar radiation doesn't reach Earth because _____

• it is reflected off particles in the atmosphere
• it is absorbed by clouds and particles in the atmosphere
• it is reflected off clouds
• all are correct

Radiation is transferred by ____

• flow of energy
• touch
• rays and waves 
• winds

Source of all energy in our atmosphere

• ions
• water cycle
• The Moon
• The Sun

If  you shine a light on an object - what transfer of energy does that model?

• conduction
• convection
• radiation
• emission

Convection

• transfer of heat by flow
• transfer of heat by touch
• transfer of heat by waves and rays
• transfer of heat by wind

Conduction

• transfer of energy by flow
• transfer of energy by touch
• transfer of energy by waves and rays
• transfer of energy by wind

Doldrums

• create trade winds
• create weather in North America
• windless zone
• very cold zone

Cool air sinks and created a zone of high pressure

• doldrums
• prevailing westerlies
• polar easterlies
• trade winds
