Bend and curve around the planet.
The Coriolis effect causes the surface ocean currents to bend and curve around the planet. This effect is named after the French mathematician and engineer Gustav Gaspard Coriolis who discovered it. It explains why the winds or the currents in the oceans curve instead of travelling straight. The cause of the phenomenon is the rotation of the earth. It describes why the objects deflect while in motion.

Outline the significance of adiabatic temperature gradient in determining the earth’s convective stability ​
Vilka [71]

Answer: Adiabatic temperature gradient is the rate of change in temperature due to pressure under adiabatic conditions.

Explanation:

The rate of change of temperature due to pressure under adiabatic conditions is referred to as adiabatic temperature gradient.

In practice, since in the sea the pressure changes can be considered proportional to depth changes, the adiabatic temperature gradient is usually given as rate of change per unit depth, instead of per unit pressure and for practical purposes and calculations, the unit of depth is often chosen as 1000 m.

The natural and non-natural heat transfer influence the process of adiabatic temperature gradient.

Explain how storms are formed due to rising temperatures and other changes in
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Hurricanes need a lot of heat to form, which is why they usually occur over tropical seas (at least 26°C).

The sun is close to the equator, providing energy to heat the ocean.

The warm ocean heats the air above it causing it to rise rapidly.

Water evaporates quickly from the hot surface of the ocean, so the rising air contains great amounts of water vapour.

The rising air starts to spin (anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere)

The centre of the storm - the eye - is calm.

As the air rises it cools, condenses and forms towering cumulonimbus clouds.

The rapidly rising air creates an area of intense low pressure. The low pressure sucks in air, causing very strong winds.

Once the storm moves over land it starts to lose energy and fades.
