I think the correct answers from the choices listed above are options 1 and 4. The Middle Latitudes have only two seasons and abundant rainfall in some places, less in other areas. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
Answer:
An atmospheric flow that transports vast amounts of moisture to regions outside of the tropics
Explanation:
Atmospheric rivers are relatively long, narrow regions in the atmosphere – like rivers in the sky – that transport most of the water vapor outside of the
Answer:
b. wind waves, seiches, tsunami, tides.
Explanation:
The wavelength of water waves is calculated measuring the distances between the trough (low point) portion of a wave. Usually, the bigger the wave, the greater the wavelength.
wind waves: small waves caused by the wind. These waves tend to be small and with a short wavelength.
seiches: are usually waves on a lake or other closed water bassin. They can be pretty high from a human perspective, so they are definitely bigger than wind waves.
tsunami: we all know how big the waves of a tsunami can be, totally wiping out coastal cities they encounter, so that's pretty big waves, and big waves tend to be larger apart (so with a bigger wavelength) than smaller ones.
tides: yes, a tide can be considered as a huge wave... that's running throughout the planet. We barely see it as a wave because we can only see one wave at a time, the next wave being tens of thousands of mile away.
Answer:
C. It transports heat from the North Atlantic to the Indian Ocean.
Explanation:
The Antarctic Circumpolar Current is a massive oceanic current that circles around the Antarctic continent, that plays many roles.
One of the roles it plays is to connect all three major oceans (Atlantic, Pacific and Indian) together, and acts as a transportation system between them transferring heat, salt and other elements.
That role is vital in the global ocean thermo-regulation system of the planet.
