Explanation: Ocean currents are like conveyer belts of warm and cold water, sending heat toward the polar regions, and helping tropical areas cool off, thus influencing both weather and climate. Land areas also absorb some sunlight, and the atmosphere helps, to retain heat that would otherwise, quickly radiate into space after sunset. Prevailing winds brings air from one type of climate to another. For example, warm winds that travel over water, tend to collect moisture as they travel; the water vapor in the air will condense, as it moves into colder climates, which is why temperate coastal areas often receive heavy rainfall.

Answer:

The world’s oceans influence climate in two different ways: through water temperatures and through currents. Ocean water heats and cools more slowly than land temperatures. Thus, the ocean keeps coastal temperatures mild and consistent, with less of a temperature range than that of inland regions. Ocean currents, such as the Gulf Stream, also affect climate. They move warm and cold water around the world’s oceans, from the tropics to the polar regions. Like ocean currents, wind currents help to move heat around the world. They pick up warm or cool air as they blow over the oceans and transfer it to other areas. Winds from hot areas, such as the tropics, are warm and increase the temperatures of other regions. Winds from cold areas, such as the poles, are cooler and decrease temperatures in the regions they move through.

In carbon cycle, what does weathering do?<br> Why is weathering important in carbon cycle?
juin [17]

Answer:

The movement of carbon from the atmosphere to the lithosphere ( rocks ) begins with rain. Atmospheric carbon combines with water to form a weak acid ( carbonic acid ) that falls to the surface in rain. The acid dissolves rocks - a process called chemical weathering and releases calcium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium ions.
