Answer:

What is the greenhouse effect?

  • The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere.
  • Light energy emitted by the sun warms the earth's surface, which reflects the energy as heat that warms the atmosphere. Much of the heat is captured by greenhouse gas molecules such as water, carbon dioxide, and methane.
  • Radiatively active gases (i.e., greenhouse gases) in a planet's atmosphere radiate energy in all directions. Part of this radiation is directed towards the surface, thus warming it. The intensity of downward radiation – that is, the strength of the greenhouse effect – depends on the amount of greenhouse gases that the atmosphere contains. The temperature rises until the intensity of upward radiation from the surface, thus cooling it, balances the downward flow of energy.

Advocard [28]
Subtropical waters are typically more saline than equatorial waters because of the bigger temperature and much lower precipitation.
The precipitation manages to lower the salinity on the surface of the water even create ''pools'' with fresh water in the middle of the saline water. In the equatorial region there's rain almost every day, so the salinity is lower, while in the subtropical regions there's seasonal rain and it is in much lower amount, the temperature is higher which makes the water evaporate more and the salt to be more concentrated, thus the higher salinity.

Elza [17]

Answer:

Fissure eruptions

Explanation:

A fissure vent or eruption fissure is a linear volcanic vent from which lava erupts mostly without explosive activity. The vent is usually not very wide but can be very long stretching for miles. While they do not explode like many volcanic cones do, fissure vents can cause large flood basalts. After some time the eruption builds up spatter cones and may concentrate on one or some of them. Spatter cones are steep-sided hills that consist of welded lava fragments that are called spatter and these cones form around vents.
