It is also bounded Australia and Asia in the Western side and America on the eastern side. It covers consists of the Earth's 46% total surface water. The imaginary line Equator that splits the Earth Into two hemispheres passes through it centrally and divides the Earth into the Southern hemisphere and Northern Hemisphere.

Warm current in the Pacific Ocean is caused due to change in the temperature of the water that is called El Niño. It is related to the belt of warm ocean water developed in the central and eastern-central equatorial Pacific that includes the area of South America's Pacific coast. El Nino is conveyed by western Pacific high air pressure and eastern Pacific low air pressure. The countries that are under the developing stage get most affected by it, particularly those countries that depend on fishing and agriculture.

Consider two stars in the constellation Pasta. Alpha Tortellini is bright at ultraviolet (UV) wavelenghts and dim in at infrared

Ket [755]

Beta Ziti is the hotter star.

Infrared is the type of radiation which creates warmth. Atoms and molecules move more and more, and produce infrared radiation, as temperature increases. An object, like a hot clothing iron, which is not hot enough to produce light to the naked eye, emits energy in the infrared.

At the other end of the spectrum is ultraviolet radiation, which is more energetic. It has nothing to do with heat.
