Weather and atmosphere

How can we forecast the weather?

• We have to mesure the different mathematical variables, in other to predict air movements

• We have to mesure the different meteorological variables, in other to predict air movements

• We have to mesure the different biological variables, in other to predict air movements

• We have to mesure the different chemical variables, in other to predict air movements

What are the factors that produce air movement in the atmosphere?

• Temperature, pressure and solar radiation

• Solar radiation and pressure

• Temperature and solar radiation

• Temperature and pressure

How does the wind circulate?

• Wind circulates from areas of high pressures to areas of low pressures.

• Wind circulates from areas of high presurres to areas of high pressures.

• Wind circulates from areas of low pressures to areas of high pressures.

• Wind circulates from areas of low pressures to areas of low pressures.

What is the atmosphere?

• Earth is not surrounded by an envelope of gasses and particles.

  This envelope is of variable thickness and composition

• Earth is surrounded by an envelope of seas and particles.

  This envelope is of variable thickness and composition
