How do earth's spheres interact to cause weather/climate?

The atmosphere transfers heat energy and moisture across the Earth. Incoming solar radiation (insolation) is redistributed from areas in which there is a surplus of heat (the equator) to areas where there is a heat deficit (the North and South Pole). This is achieved through a series of atmospheric cells: the Hadley cell, the Ferrel cell and the Polar cell (Figure 2). These operate in a similar way to, and indeed interact with, the ocean conveyor.

For example, as the oceans at low latitudes are heated, water evaporates and is transported poleward as water vapour. This warm air eventually cools and subsides. Changes in temperature and CO2 concentrations can lead to: changes in the size of atmospheric cells (in particular, the Hadley cell is susceptible to these alterations); warming in the troposphere; and disproportionately strong warming in Arctic regions. The strong interactions between ocean and atmospheric dynamics, and the significant feedback mechanisms between them, mean that climate researchers must consider these Earth components as interlinked systems. The necessity to assess ocean-atmospheric changes at the global scale has implications for the way in which research is conducted. It is only by integrating palaeo evidence of past changes, with present day monitoring, and projected models,

A plant scientist was hired by a greenhouse operator to devise a way to force iris plants to bloom in the short days of winter.
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Interrupt the long winter nights with a brief period of light.

Explanation:

Long day plants, also called short night plants, flower when the dark period is equal or less than the critical period specific for the species. These plants normally flower in summers when nights are short and days are longer. Winters have a long dark period and do not support flowering in shirt night plants.

A continuous dark period is critical for flowering. A short night plant can flower in winters (having longer dark periods) if the dark period is interrupted by exposing the plant with a flash of light. To make short night plants, such as iris to flower in winters, the plant should be given short period of light after completion of critical dark period.
