Answer:

  • upwelling
  • obliquity
  • thermohaline circulation
  • Milankovitch cycles
  • eccentricity
  • precession

Explanation:

  • Upwelling is a process of the winds that drives away the warm water from the surface and bring up the cold and dense water from below.
  • Obliquity is the nature of the axial tilt of the earth i.e 23.5 ° Due to the equator bulge and other properties of the earth.
  • The thermohaline circulation is the global circulation of the waster that is created by the gradient flow of the surface heat and the freshwater influxes.
  • Milankovitch cycles are the effect of the changes in the earth's movements in climatic patterns over a thousands of years period.
  • Eccentricity is the orbital rotation of the earth around the sun on its axis and has more of a circular elliptical path.
  • The precession is the change in the orientation of the axial tilt of the planet in reference to the rotating body.

In general, the highest relative humidity is observed ___________ and the lowest relative humidity is observed _____________
nikdorinn [45]

In general, the highest relative humidity is observed NEAR SUNRISE and the lowest relative humidity is observed during MID-AFTERNOON.

Relative humidity is inversely proportional to temperature. The colder the climate, the higher the relative humidity. The hotter the temperatures outside, the lower the relative humidity.

Relative humidity increases as the air temperature falls at night and peaks at dawn.  

Temperature peaks during mid-afternoon, thus relative humidity is at its lowest.

1. In a hot-spot volcanic island chain, such as the Hawaiian Islands, all islands possess active volcanoes simultaneously and th
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

<u>True</u>.

Explanation:

  • As the volcanic islands of Hawaii are still considered to be in an active zone, as the Hawaiian islands are believed to be formed on the hotspot of eruptions ie. the active plate boundaries from below the surface these tend to move westwards direction from the main island of Hawaii.
  • As we go from east to west the chain of rocks gets older and then forms a ring-shaped pattern hence called the ring of fire. Thus there is a great risk of volcanic hazard as these are fault lines being associated with high magnitude tectonic earthquakes.
  • They can have a seriously damaging impact upon other islands as well and this considered to be highly hazardous. As various vents and mounds of volcanic nature lie within the oceans of the Pacific plate.
